OK. Let me preface my remarks by saying I in no way condone, endorse, or even believe this myself, but I have heard the argument that this is all down to the translation, and how it was implemented IRL was vastly different, based on the judge who was hearing the case at the time. (Think Solomon and the baby.)

Yes, it's thin on the ground, and a bit specious (especially given that extremists from all three of the Abrahamic religions tend to go with a literalist view of such verses), but that's the counterpoint I've heard that goes a little deeper than "something something Jesus loves me I'm not listening lah lah lah" which is the tack the fundies take.

I doubt that highly, considering in the same region where the events of the Bible were to have taken place, modern-day stoning is still practiced. I can't imagine that somehow back in Biblical times it was less brutal.
