Most of you good people seem to have misunderstood the question.

There are several different sets of '10 commandments' in the Bible. I was asking which *set* (of 10) you prefer.

Neither. They keep posting them on the public property!

I am glad that you realize there is more than one set! Good research!

This is a correct observation, that there are variations on the 10 commandments in scripture. From Wikipedia:

"The passage conventionally considered to include the commandments in chapter 20 of the book of Exodus contains more than ten imperative statements (while Jewish law sees each as representing a separate commandment), totalling 14 or 15 in all.

Nonetheless, the Bible itself assigns the count of "10". The Hebrew phrase ʻaseret had'varim - translated as the 10 words, statements or things Exodus 34:28, Deuteronomy 4:13 and Deuteronomy 10:4.

Religious groups have divided the commandments in different ways.

For instance, Catholics and Lutherans see the first six verses as part of the same command prohibiting the worship of pagan gods. Protestants (except Lutherans) separate all six verses into two different commands (one being "no other gods" and the other being "no graven images"). The initial reference to Egyptian bondage is important enough to Jews that it forms a separate commandment. Catholics and Lutherans separate the two kinds of coveting (namely, of goods and of the flesh), while Protestants (but not Lutherans) and Jews group them together."

Mine. They are:

1) Thou shalt not believe in imaginary gods, including me
2) Thou shalt not sculpt anything made out of feces
3) Thou shalt not steal thy neighbors weather vane
4) Remember the band Black Sabbath & keep Ozzy holy (even though he's totally shot)
5) Honor all moms, especially MILFS!
6) Thou shalt not murder (unless thou has a pretty darn good excuse)
7) Thou shalt not admit adultry (that's what causes all the trouble)
8) Thou shalt not steal from me. (stealing from others is okay)
9) Thou shalt not bear false breasts and say they're real
10) Thou shalt not covet Miss West Virginia (thupp thupp thupp)

There is only one set of 10 commandments. There are other commandments that He spoke of but there is only one set of 10. What exactly are you asking?

Actually, you are lying.

I don't know which Bible you have been reading, but the Bible is consistent in stating the Ten Commandments.

I am not beholden to anyone's commands. If you want to be commanded you go right ahead. Just leave me out of it.

The one in one of the bibles in my book collection. It's a mis-print. "Thou shalt commit adultery"

No. 1 is the best.

They should have included:
Thou shalt not force thy religion on others.
