What are the 10 commandments?

Answer 1

The ten commandments have been listed already but I think someone should also say what they're not.

They're not Christian.

They appear in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible but before the Jesus episodes. They are the basis of Jewish Law and Islam draws from them, too. Islamic fundamentalists, until very recently, interpreted "Thou shalt not make graven images" to mean all graphic representations of reality including photographs and television.

The Christians only have two commandments.

1: Love God.
2: Love Thy Neighbour.

in that order.

I'm NOT a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim and I don't want anyone making assumptions, so I mention it. This is just relevant information.

Answer 2

There are many dif. versions of the 10 commandments... You can go to many sites, or just look in the bible.

Answer 10

I don't know, but bible thumpers routinely violate the one about taking God's name in vain. Christians violate that one about having other Gods before God.

I suppose that makes the rest of them irrelevant.
