Stoning!

False analogy. You tried to tell Albert what he should believe in to be a proper *Christian*, to be what he self-identifies as.
Muhammed didn't lecture the Quraish on how they should be proper Pagans.

actually Muhammad (pbuh) did:

34. But what plea have they that Allah should not punish them, when they keep out (men) from the sacred Mosque - and they are not its guardians? No men can be its guardians except the righteous; but most of them do not understand.
35. Their prayer at the House (of Allah) is nothing but whistling and clapping of hands:
(Its only answer can be), "Taste the penalty because ye blasphemed."


Those to whom We have sent the Book study it as it should be studied: They are the ones that believe therein:
Those who reject faith therein,- the loss is their own.
Quran 2:121

Say: "O People of the Book! ye have no ground to stand upon unless ye stand fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that has come to you from your Lord."
It is the revelation that cometh to thee from thy Lord, that increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. But sorrow thou not over (these) people without Faith.
Quran 5:68


Volume 4, Book 56, Number 829:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar:

The Jews came to Allah's Apostle and told him that a man and a woman from amongst them had committed illegal sexual intercourse.
Allah's Apostle said to them, "What do you find in the Torah (old Testament) about the legal punishment of Ar-Rajm (stoning)?"
They replied, (But) we announce their crime and lash them."
Abdullah bin Salam (the ex-Jewish Rabbi) said, "You are telling a lie; Torah contains the order of Rajm."
They brought and opened the Torah and one of them solaced his hand on the Verse of Rajm and read the verses preceding and following it.
Abdullah bin Salam said to him, "Lift your hand." When he lifted his hand, the Verse of Rajm was written there.
They said, "Muhammad has told the truth; the Torah has the Verse of Rajm.
The Prophet then gave the order that both of them should be stoned to death.
('Abdullah bin 'Umar said, "I saw the man leaning over the woman to shelter her from the stones."

sound harsh? how many innocent men women and children are shot to death with lead stones in today's "civilized" world for no crime. whatsoever?
