Starting Hammurabi's Code

Today when we came into the class we prayed the Our Father in Spanish because I guess some of us were feeling like we needed some extra prayers. It is Valentine's day and Mr.Schick was going to tell us something about St. Valentine but we were all talking so now we'll never know what he was going to say. I don't like when that happens but I'm not too upset. My only valentines this year are my friends but I like it that way. Anyway, on to Hammurabi's Code. We started to read all of the laws that are still legible in Hammurabi's Code today and honestly, I think that it is a very just set of laws. There doesn't seem to be anything that caused me to be too outraged. I just think that some of the punishments should probably be a little bit different for some of the laws. In one of the laws, it says that if a wife cheats on her husband her and the man she cheated with will be killed, but also in another law it says that if a father rapes his daughter he is not killed, but just exiled. I feel like those punishments should be opposite of each other, but that's really the only real thing I would change about Hammurabi's code.
