The 10 Commandments are one of my complaints about the Bible. But, then again, I also had a dad who walked out and a mom who mocked and ridiculed me throughout puberty.
That's pretty much how I feel, except by extending it to include the fact that if you need an ancient book of religious superstition to teach you not to lie, steal, or kill then you have some very serious issues.I have no questions, I was just sharing my view of the ten commandments: that only three of them have any place in our society (legal system) today. Because you posted this in debates I assumed you wanted to debate the validity of the ten commandments.
That is your religion, and no reason at all that others should have to uphold your religious views. To me, it's interesting to watch Jews and Christians debate the Tanakh/OT. But to many of us those books have no weight or bearing on us, and we could care less about what their laws and dogma are. and some of us even find some terrible issues with morality in the Bible, such as the deep efforts to control sexuality, which is included in the 10 (and that is one of the lesser complaints and concerns).Hebrews 9: 27 - God's judgment supercedes human politics........
