    Who is the "one another" that passage is addressed to?

    "Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone"

    He was the only person there that day who was free of sin, the only one who had the right to "cast the first stone." He didn't stone her, but instead forgave her and told her to sin no more.

    That is tolerance and understanding. He knew she wasnt without flaws and yet she shoulnt be punished. Nor where the accusers punished for their hatred.

    Jesus is behind me 100%, Why yes, I could.

    Jesus died for me. I hope he died for you as well.

    An atheist that claims he likes Jesus, with people skills of a quality that his reverend(!?) thinks he should hold sermons.

    This is one of the craziest things I have ever read.

    I find him to be aa inspiration. The bible holds many great truths even though I dont believe in everything that is written in it. That doesnt mean, I dont respect other opinions, andI do believe in love and the bible do teach us about love.

    No, I dont hate. I was in Afghanistan as a soldier. I saw hate there.

    Currently, I am a police officer. And I see plenty of hate during my work day.

    Your what? Where in the Bible is that described?

    I held many sermons, my reverand (Susanne) was impressed with my people skills.
    How does Susanne justify being a "reverand" in light of 1 Timothy 2:11-15?
