I decided the morality of the ten commandments could be boiled down into, "Do not harm or deceive anyone"...
But, since everyone enjoys lists of 10, I decided to go a bit further and fill it out with some substance:
1. Do not harm or deceive anyone
2. Help those less fortunate
3. Identify and improve your own flaws and weaknesses
4. Be observant and considerate
5. Do not be greedy; never take more than you need
6. Think critically before making important decisions
7. Give people the benefit of the doubt; walk a mile in the other person's shoes
8. Lead by example
9. Be kinder to others than they are to you
10. Make the world a better place for our children
It may not be perfect, but I would argue that it is a better list than the bible
What do you think?
Can you come up with a better list, or improve upon what I've got going here?
If original 10 commandments was made by man, you will be right.
Such commandments will not be eternal and unchangeable and people could discuss about it, like about constitution of any country.
But, since God created 10 commandments, not any man, we see that still after a few thousand years this commandments didn't change and still have power to change and inspire people.
Can you find something like this in laws man created?
No, of course, because God's laws and commandments are vertical and eternal.
Man's laws and commandments are temporary,never last long time, as already proved many times in human history.
Do you think that your 10 commandments above will last 4 000 years?
Or 1000 years? 10 years? 1 year? Even 1 day? I don't think so.
Please think about it.
