I had an interesting conversation with a lady today in relation to Christianity's form of punishment from the OT (stoning) and Muslim's form of punishment (beheading).
She had no understanding of Christianity and how either one of these punishments were justified enough to put someone to death.
She then continued to explain how both religions were just as bad as the other if they both teach to murder.
As a Christian how would you explain to someone who is non religious, who does not understand the difference between the two punishments and how they compare?

I would point out her own hypocrisy about capital punishment.
The average atheist in the modern world believes:
- it's RIGHT to KILL an INNOCENT BABY in the womb
- it's WRONG to KILL a WICKED, CONVICTED MURDERER.
Skip her question and ask your own.
Ask her why she believes in killing the innocent, and sparing the wicked.
