The horror! The horror!

Biblical morality is subjective to the Ten Commandments. Fundamentalistic Biblical morality, foundational on the Ten Commandments, seems to be what works best, when you look around the world and look at history.

1. Free will, unsubjected to the Biblical Ten Commandments tends towards anarchy, bloodshed, poverty and destruction. History attests to that.2. Free agents are free as to whether to subject themselves to the Ten Commandments.This message has been edited by buzsaw, 01-15-2005 17:17 AM

The first four commandments establish your allegience to the Biblical god, Jehovah and his book. If you get established into his precepts you will not abuse your child, your dog, your or anything of yours. Neither will you abuse or missuse anything of your neighbor's. You might eat your cow, but while it's living under your care, you will treat it humanely.The last six have to do with your treatment and how you relate to others, including your parents. If you follow these along with the 1st four relating to your god, you will treat others as you would have them treat you.Jesus alluded to this in teaching that we love God with all our hearts, souls and minds and that we love others as we love ourselves. All the commandments are implicated in this statement of Jesus. That's not the case with most free and blessed nations historically and today. In these nations, first principles were not rationalized independent of the Bible. They were Biblically inspired. Mmmm hmmm. Mohammed's version, Hitler's version, Mao's version, Stalin's version, Jim Jones's version, paganism's versions, such as Caesar's, Nero's, primitive pagan versions, Hindu versions, and even the rational of the popes and bishops of the inquisitions, rational which ignored their very own book, the Bible in which were those Ten Commandments. Take a good look at the history of the cultures and nations which suffered and still suffer under these rationals. I wouldn't know. I've never lived under a theocracy and hope I never will until rightious Jesus, king of kings and lord of lords sets up the perfect one.

Heh. Make it the latter one, in tact. I've insulated myself from stuff like Moore's to the point that I had to google him to learn who he was. It appears from the text that he might've fit in with some stuff going on which irritated Moses to the point of busting up the first ones.

Yes, slavery was tolerated by God, wasn't it? And since God tolerated it, they were to be well treated. Slavery was tolerated by nearly all cultures that I am aware of in those days. Those protected by the tennants of the 10 Commandments likely faired the best of all, certainly better than the Egyptians when God allowed the Jews to be enslaved by Egypt. As slaves, they were terribly oppressed in Egypt.

[qs]You certainly can't mean the US because the US is not based upon the Ten Commandments. The first four are all about worshipping god and the First Amendment trumps that.[qs] Put it this way......highly influenced by. Every kid in US schools was indoctrinated in public schools by the Ten Commandments for at least nearly two centuries. Most in our early schools likely had them all memorized. For a century or so, every kid in school began their first year of school with the New England Primer, a totally Biblical book. This has escalated considerably in the last half century coinciding with the decline in popularity and promenance of the TC.
