While Singapore’s Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) maintains a firm stance on the effectiveness of the death penalty in managing drug trafficking in Singapore, the article presents evidence suggesting that the methodologies and interpretations of these studies might not be as substantial as portrayed.

USA: Conservative pastor: "Stoning gays is the mindset of God"

The New Civil Rights Movement reports that pastor Ben Bailey of the Central Church of Christ recorded a video in which he suggests "the mindset of God" is strongly in favor of stoning gay people to death. 

According to Bailey, God has "a definite standard and it is not the liberal mindset that we see today."

The speech was part of his weekly "The Gospel of Christ" evangelistic program, which, according to the website, "seeks to teach and preach THE WHOLE COUNSEL OF GOD."

"God does not approve of homosexuality or gay marriage," Bailey claims. "The scripture says ... that is vile, unnatural and deserving of a penalty ... It's an abomination that under the Old Testament deserved stoning."

"And so, is our God, the God of Bible, wanting us to go somewhere where it's liberal, relaxed views and anything goes? No, that's the effect of a very liberal society. And we need to make sure that such is not the idea or the mindset of God."
