That's Judaism.

That's Judaism.

And Christianity, so long as you were without sin. Or at least if someone without sin had cast the first one.

Wrong. You are presumably referring to the story of the woman caught in adultery (John 8:1-11). The lesson that Jesus was teaching there is that no-one is without sin, except himself, and he didn't condemn her either.

You may think the story is fictional, or even that Jesus never existed. But that doesn't alter that story, nor the teaching that it presents.

There is an idea that pops up from time to time (called "sinless perfection", and considered heretical) that Christians are without sin. The preacher C.S.Spurgeon rebutted this idea by pouring a jug of water over the head of a proponent of this doctrine, and observing the reaction.

The doctrine that we are all sinners is a fundamental tenet of Christianity. Stoning sinners has never been part of Christianity.

It all depends on how you define "sin" One man's sin is another man's normality

So I was correct. If Jesus was to cast the first stone, they could have all piled in. Good try at being preachy though.
