If it the teaching existed in Leviticus only, then you would be right to tell me to ignore it. However, it is also present in the New Testament, minus the stoning bit. By the time of the NT a theocracy was no longer possible so punishments for things considered severe in a theocratic government was no longer applicable since those things were not necessarily considered seriously wrong by other people.
