11. Thou shalt keep thy religion unto thyself.
Seems like there would be a lot less trouble around us...and perhaps a more peaceful world out there...whaddaya think?

How about just forget the commandments in the first place. They only help religions and their followers condemn. There needs to be a new teaching. A new structure of lessons. This will not be easy for all religions are attached to their old ways. There needs to be a new way. A more appropriate way of life. People are more advanced then what humanity was in the past. The old teachings don't work the greatest anymore.

If you have a religion you should keep it to yourself. But if you have the Holy Spirit dwelling in you because you have trusted in what the Lord Jesus Christ did on the cross, He died for your sins. Then how do you keep that to yourself. Would you not warn somebody if a bridge was out? Sure you would. But people keep quite when they know that people are on their way to hell and will not tell them what the Lord Jesus Christ has done for them. 1 Corinthians 15: 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15: 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Well, if you can go up a mountain leaving your brother to stop the rabble worshiping graven images and can come back down with the appropriate wording engraved on stone, then maybe we'll consider it. We'll have to get a carpenter to remodel the Ark of the Covenant, mind. "Joseph! Here, my man. Look we shall need some work done on this box ... Er ... Where IS the Ark of the Covenant, by the way? Has anyone seen it in the last 1000 years or so? ... OK, hold your horses, Joe ... we'll get back to you on this."

Actually, things would be a lot more peaceful if people would just stop being so judgmental. Why can't everyone just accept that what suits them doesn't work for everyone? So I think the 11th Commandment should be "Though shall not judge your fellow man"

That 11th Commandment--is that what you are doing now? How about: Thou Shalt Not Be Stupid.

i don't think so.
this world would be so much more jacked up, corrupted, & messed up.
u need jesus in your life.
if you think our world have troubles now...without god, man i can't even imagine or want to imagine how this world would be.
peaceful? this is going to get worse.
hell is a million x's worse then what the world is like right now.
heaven? that's where all the joy, peace, happiness, eternal life, no sicknesses, no evil will be.
you need to pray & ask god to help you.
remember: JESUS IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH & THE LIFE/LIGHT.

tolerance should be the 11th commandment. People dont have tolerance to other peoples religion, way of thinking, etc. Thats what going on.
