Bob Murphy discusses the book *Public Stoning: God's Design for a Nation Without Prisons* with the author, Adam Terrell, beginning at the 48 minute mark, if you're interested. (It doesn't sound like anything I care to read, however).

I still favor capital punishment, though I know many Christian libertarians oppose it on moral grounds. I'm not fully convinced it's immoral. The Apostle Paul said in Acts 25:11 “If, then, I am a wrongdoer and have committed anything worthy of death, I do not refuse to die." I am opposed to the State, and to the State carrying out capital punishment, but it doesn't have to be exclusively carried out by the State. Often the victim's family or the whole community would carry out just executions. That said, I don't personally like the barbarity of stoning, and I'm not sure it's what Jesus would have us do.

I haven't read this, but I'm not sure Jesus would approve. The one time we know of that they tried to stone a woman in His presence He stopped it.
