That's the thing though; he very much holds everything in the Old Testament as "perfect" that would include stoning. Keep in mind that he said that no jot of the original law would be changed. He also very much was credited with saying that he had come to divide mothers against sisters, sons against fathers, etc. The only thing I really have against the whole "PG" status is really just his teachings. While some offer good advice, what makes it bad is how some actually go about implementing what he suggests that is basically just Bronze Age thinking.

I really can't call creating a whip "justified" and even while he didn't follow every law, he is still clearly saying in one chapter that the law is perfect and that he wouldn't change it. That kind of inconsistency is troublesome. Why cut him some slack if it's shown that he very well theoretically could change the law but chooses not to?
