Hi JohnDoe,
True, stoning in the Qur'an is not mentioned, but Shari'ah also contains the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad, saaws, and there are hadiths that talk about this punishment. Just a thought - most of the stonings during his time was the result of that the adulterers themselves confessed they were guilty, it was not the court that found them guilty.
''My moral views would prevent me from stoning someone to death.''
For once I agree with you - due to that common man cannot go around and judge or kill someone, it has to be done in a legal way by the court and through a verdict.
Sorry you got me there, I don't know what you have written with cursive letters means ?
Have a nice time too, wherever you are...
Regards
