I've seen the movie. A Monty Python's masterpice.

(The Stoning Place. A LAD OFFICIAL stands there, with some helpers,
confronting the potential stonee, PEDRO. A large crowd watches. 90% are
women in beards. Around there are a few Roman troops.)
 
Official: Pedro, developer of Qt based applications ...
Pedro: Do I say "Yes"?
Official's Helper: Yes.
Pedro: Yes.
Official: You have been found guilty by the elders of the town of uttering
the name of the library and so as a blasphemer you are to be stoned to
death.
Pedro: Look, I'd had a lovely supper and all I said was, "Let's release this
little library as 'aseqmm'".
Official: Blasphemy! He's said it again.
Pedro: Look. I don't think it ought to be blasphemy, just saying "aseqmm!"
(voices) He said it again.
Official: (to Pedro) You're only making it worse for yourself.
(...)
At the end of the scene, several women carry a huge rock and drop it on the
Official. Everybody claps.
