Death by stoning as the penalty for adultery might work as a deterrent.
This makes me reflect on how humanity is humanity's worst problem. This is way over the top and we see it in some of America's best allies. How many religious zealots in the USA would support such measures. I would suspect quite a few.
McClatchy: Floggings, stonings could begin in Pakistan's scenic Swat valley
The leader of the group, Sufi Mohammad, said penalties including flogging, chopping off hands and stoning to death must be available to Swat's Islamic courts.
Floggings are the proper punishment for sexual intercourse between unmarried people, drinking alcohol and slander, Mohammad said. Thieves should have their hands chopped off, except for poor people who steal to feed themselves. The punishment for adultery is death by stoning.

Welcome to the 6th century in the Swat valley a great place to live if u like religious fanatics. I'd put a cage around this valley and then charge to see these freaks.
We are taught to be open minded and understanding of other people's customs and religions, but this is wrong, simple as that.
