I just agree with your point it's all a bit dated so on that point yes. All Abrahamic traditions are 3000 plus years old so why expect anything close to acting and thinking as if in the 21st century. All 3 monotheistic faiths suffer that same problem to one degree or another.
yea, too bad stoning isn't still available in the states.... a lot of Jerry Springer show's would have never been aired... lol
