When Moses received the Ten Commandments, Mount Sinai was completely in smoke, because the Lord came down upon it in fire and the mountain quaked violently (Ex 19:18). The chidren of Israel saw these manifestations of presence of God and knew that the Commandments were from God. Moses could not have made all these manifestations up.

Possible.
But if people thought the laws were stupid, why live by them?
huh?
They must have been good for something.
1)The most important commandment was broken before Moses came down the mountain. We shouldn't bow to false idols. Be it Money, Pop Stars, Hollywood, or Consumerism
2)We constantly use the lords name in VAIN! Attacking each other and saying they other is going to hell. Even amoungst religious factions that is using the lords name in vain. "God hates Gays" is using the Lords name in vain.
3)We should all get one day off a week! God watches the Superbowl too!
4)Appearently some Isrealites thought it was okay to leave behind the old in the desert to make pace and save provisions. Honor thy father and mother, doesn't mean obey it just means treat with respect. It is a positive social attribute to take care of the elderly.
5)Don't Kill. (or you'll be killed)
6)Don't sleep around, there's STDs
7)Don't steal (or you'll be stolen from, let's be civil people!)
8)Don't Lie, you just end up doing more work to cover your tracks. More over don't blame someone else for something you did.
9)Don't f-ck your friend's girl. Make sense, you wouldn't be friends anymore
10)Don't envy other people's things. It distracts you from dealing with your own reality. Be happy for what you have.
Seriously, even if he did just make them up they are still way better than the Code of Hammurabi!!!!
Moses was a genius.

ok, many of the solutions have already reported a number of what i visit assert-i will upload in simple terms slightly extra. I in simple terms regarded it up on Bible gateway to refresh my memory. to initiate, this grow to be after Moses and God had led the persons out of Egypt, with many miracles alongside the way. 2nd, God did not in simple terms communicate to Moses, yet to the elders of the persons too. 0.33, while he went up, they observed a visual sign that God grow to be there. Fourth, in entire, Moses grow to be up there for 40 six days, so a techniques as we are able to tell from the textual content cloth, without foodstuff; yet he got here down in suitable actual well-being. additionally, it wasn't in simple terms the ten commandments he got here down with, however the full of Genesis and Leviticus. Now i don't comprehend approximately you, yet while somebody the two tells me or shows me some thing over a 40 day era, after which asks me to repeat it, i would not be waiting to, yet he did. a lot of those rules in Leviticus are very particular, and are customary to be an incredibly sturdy foundation for well-being, which the certainty of the day would not have customary. So, to recap:in Moses' case, we've miracles in develop, we've 1000's of followers, we produce different witnesses to a minimum of a few thing supernatural, we've his unexplained well-being after 40 six days up a mountain, and we've a lot of rules that have a valid scientific foundation. All mutually, those look like very sturdy motives for accepting this account.

The things that made very sense today is that, priests and other leaders of different religion, espicially, the Christianity. The religion is now purely business enterprises. Churches involves money for their(priests/pastors/leaders,etc.) personal benefits. It made them rich and powerful, people who thought, they were God's mesenger but the reality is that, these kind of people don't ever believed in salvation for themselves are very opposite of what they were preaching to their brothers and sisters. They told their members to give/ donate tithes and money for salvation but the truth, its for them, for their personal needs/ interests, for paying bills of telephone, cable, aircons in their bedrooms, renovating the convent to be like a pension house/ hotel/ expensive. Living in very relaxing life with lots of money for their wants, and the members who donated, living in poverty for they thought, they got salvation of what their leaders told them.

Moses is a fraud, like Mohammed Mohammed and L. Ron Hubbard.
Praise Jesus!

actually he supposedly came down with three gold tablets too that were inscribed with the kabbalah--I think he probably had them stashed there beforehand
