I assume that, by "that OTHER book", you mean the Old Testament.
If so, shut the fuck up about your invisible sky-daddy's supposed issues with homosexuality and get your books straight.

Hwy Enforcer -- you should read Leviticus sometime:
>>Lv 20:2 Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
>>Lv 24:13 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 14 Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the congregation stone him.
>>Lv 24:23 And Moses spake to the children of Israel, that they should bring forth him that had cursed out of the camp, and stone him with stones. And the children of Israel did as the LORD commanded Moses.
And so forth. READ YOUR FUCKING BOOK!

I think it's about time True Christians settled things once and for all by getting together, picking all the non-objectionable parts of the Bible, writing them all down on a postcard, and claiming all the other stuff wasn't written by True Christians.

Deuteronomy 21:18 If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, 19 his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. 20 They shall say to the elders, "This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a profligate and a drunkard." 21 Then all the men of his town shall stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid.
Deuteronomy 22:23 If a man happens to meet in a town a virgin pledged to be married and he sleeps with her, 24 you shall take both of them to the gate of that town and stone them to death—the girl because she was in a town and did not scream for help, and the man because he violated another man's wife. You must purge the evil from among you.
Feel the love.

Y'know, if you read Leviticus for reasons other than to condemn teh ghey, you'd feel pretty stupid right now.

Fundies though? Most obviously haven't.

You try reading the bible.
The whole thing.
Then, try making what you've read fit with basic compassion for your fellow humans, and think about the bit that talks about treating others the way you would want to be treated. Try to make the bits that contradict other bits fit in. Do not reject any part of it, Jesus himself said it's all still valid.
Think on these things for a year or two.
Mix well.
Congratulations! You've just made an atheist. (Or at least an agnostic. YMMV)

Are you SURE God never condoned stoning? A few offenses resulting in stoning:
1. For touching Mount Sinai Exodus 19:13
2. For taking "accursed things" Joshua 7:1-26
3. For cursing or blaspheming Leviticus 24:16
4. For adultery (including urban rape victims who fail to scream loud enough) Deuteronomy 22:23-24
5. For animals (like an ox that gores a human) Exodus 21:28
6. For a woman who is not a virgin on her wedding night Deuteronomy 22:13-21
7. For worshipping other gods Deuteronomy 17:2-5
8. For preaching the wrong religion Deuteronomy 13:5-10
9. For disobeying parents Deuteronomy 21:18-21
10. For witches and wizards Leviticus 20:27
11. For giving your children to Molech Leviticus 20:2
12. For breaking the Sabbath Numbers 15:32-56
13. For cursing the king 1 Kings 21:10
But, then again, you probably haven't actually read the Bible. Most fundies haven't.

It's pretty bad when the best information against a religion are that religion's own texts.

I think he got that out of that OTHER book where stoning was condonable.
What other book? The Bible has many examples where stoning is called for by OT law. And Jesus said "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."

I think he's referring to the koran, the only problem is, koran doesn't speak of stoning as a punishment anywhere. This is the darker side of the "sharia law".

I'm pretty sure this counts as irony.
"Obama needs to get his books straight"
Yeah, I was right, irony all the way.

It's in the Bible. Death by stoning is prevalent in the Old Testament. If the stoning doesn't count, then neither do the anti-gay messages in the OT.
