Leviticus 20 crime and punishment

Leviticus 20

This chapter contains a lot of penalties covering quite a few offences that carried the death penalty - 

In the UK (along with most of the EU) does not actually have the death penalty and it seems to me that the death penalty is barbaric and it seems to me that we cannot return life if there is a miscarriage of justice, so we should not be too hasty to take life in pursuit of justice.

Among the things that are forbidden are 
Killing your children or sacrificing them to Molech.
Anybody who curses their parents 
Adulterers (of both genders)
Incest 
Homosexuals
bestiality
Mediums and sourcerers.

Now, as mentioned we do not have the death penalty but at least 3 of this list are illegal, (Killing your children, incest, and bestiality) at least one is socially unacceptable, and I personally do not believe in communication with the dead or witchraft.

Take a tip, if you want to consult the stars, or bits of card etc to tell your future, what the heck, why not talk to the maker!
