There is only ONE place in the bible that it specifically states which of the Hebrew god's 10 commandments are defined as... the 10 Commandments
Exodus 34:28.
NO where else, only there. So, why are these ignored? And what's that about boiling goat kids in their mother's milk?? Why is it in the top ten things to do or not do?
Not Exodus 34: 13-28. Even if it is the only one that calls itself the "10 commandments" in that chapter.
Religions are false, and apparently lazy as well. If they can get away with it, they will.
Christians sin, that's why they are in church every Sunday on their knees, we are human. Being a Christian gives us hope and peace and the strength to get through this life. Just give me something to believe in, I believe that Christ gave me a road map for living an enhanced life if I choose HIM.
So, why don't you, as a christian, follow the only ones in the bible that are actually named the ten commandments? What is the reason?
I think its more 'beneficial' for society in general, for believers to follow the widely accepted version instead of the set in the OP...consider how much conflict and all the problems it would create in the secular community if you constantly had parishioners actively destroying other groups shrines, and not being permitted to associate with people of other faiths.
Its easier and more convenient/ less risky to obey the second version, so naturally that is whats going to be encouraged, plus that version does not require any action, or action that would conflict with secular laws either (gee,what a coincidence!).

The above commandments are all orders about ritual observances, they contain no moral or ethical content and direction. And worse they enjoin violence for no good reason.
These commandments and the god who supposedly handed them down belong on the rubbish heap. Ann Landers probably did better than this.
