Again, the fact that liberals twist the meaning of this passage is of no relevance to me or to this issue. They twist every "judge not" statement in the entire Bible. That is their job, and their job has no bearing on Truth.[[User:MBack|Michael Back]] 8:01, 19 November 2009 (EST)

:Thanks for your superb analysis, Michael, from which I learned immensely.

:For the record, the ideological objection is not to how liberals "twist" this passage, but how the passage itself is written in such a liberal way that it renders its authenticity doubtful.  It would be akin to discovering a passage that said something like this:  "Jesus then said that government should take from the rich and give to the poor."  Historical analysis can prove that to be non-authentic; political analysis can reach the same conclusion more efficiently and with a high degree of certitude.

:Jesus did not forgive without repentance, yet the Adulteress Story claims He did.  Jesus did not comment on capital punishment, yet the Adulteress Story claims He did.  Jesus was not permissive about adultery, yet the Adulteress Story He was.  Older people are not always wiser than younger ones, yet the Adulteress Story claims they are.  And so on.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 20:15, 19 November 2009 (EST)
