"all of the harsh punishment in the Bible was
carried out by the early Hebrews, the Egyptians, and the Babylonians. The only harsh
punishment found in the New Testament was done by the Romans."

I think you missed Herod the Great, an Idumean, who gets a lot of flack in the New Testament for slaughtering the innocents. The Jews in Stephan's case were a little harsh, don't you think? I think Jesus was a little harsh on those Gadarene swine, don't you -- not the mention that fig tree. You also missed the Assyrians and Seleucids in the OT.
