    Their God given reasoning ;)
    :disagree:

    almost all of current societal laws are based originally on the ten commandments so you were saying
    This is the annoying part, Andrea. Your arrogance that the Ten Commandments are the only source of law and morality.

    Most of the "laws" that you speak of are not exclusive to the Ten Commandments. Every religion has something similar. There is absolutely no reason to think that the societal laws are based originally on the TC.

    We would have perfectly fine laws without religion. Afterall god didn't tell a guy to write them down that man did it through his own reasoning.

    What about India and China? Were they inspired by TTC? Of course. Only to an arrogant, self-centered Christian.

    And if anything, the TC are a poor set of laws anyway. It places pettiness over being the only god to ever be believed in over something as terrible as slavery and child molestation(something which Catholic priests are apparently very fond of)!

    Not to mention, it's morality based on authority. Based fear. And not based on whether it is inherently right or wrong.

    Do you really think that the Hebrew people came to Mount Sinai with the perception that theft, perjury and murder are perfectly fine things, until the so called revelation of the ten commandments?

    I'd even say that they wouldn't have gotten that far if that was the case.

    Humans are perfectly capable of being moral without religion.

    Yes I did.

    Your point?
    that was acceptable behavior, thats why God sent Job. If you read the scripture, it wills how you why the steps where laid out. Abrahams daughters, noahs neighbors , sodom and gammorah, etc until the commandments and even then with the idol worship, and debauchery when moses came down from mount sinai

    :agree: Atheists being the prime example.

    The number doesn't matter. The fact that you think they're all originally based on the TC proves your arrogance.

    Oh, and if I really wanted to be an ass, I'd say that Christianity stole "most" of the TC from Hinduism. Hell, maybe even ancient Egyptian religions.

    Do you think that a human society would exist if perjury, theft and murder were perfectly acceptable things??

    I very much doubt it.
