Many people today believe that the Ten Commandments are in and of themselves a proper moral code, but this position is very dubious. Although it does contain some basic moral prescriptions that one can find in other religions, it doesn’t even begin to address some of the most important moral problems that face people today. In addition, the Ten Commandments can and have been read as supporting positions people regard as immoral, like the ownership of slaves and the second-class status of women.
