34. A Jewish parent could not kill his Son.

The son was brought before a council and the council ruled on the sons fate and if they determined it was death then the whole city was to perform the execution leaving the parents out of the execution. Since there is not one historical document ever showing that this was ever carried out nor is their an example in the Bible of this happening it would be safe to say that God foresaw a need for the community to execute a man or womans son but made it so fucking crazy no one would ever do it.

How many prisoners would we execute today in the US if the whole city was required to show up and throw stones at the guy? Yeah lets make that a law and it would be pretty fucking progressive since it would end capital punishment immediately.
