Answer 1

1. We shall not limit freedom of thought.
2. We shall not cause unnecessary harm to any living thing or the environment.
3. We shall be respectful of the rights of others.
4. We shall be honest.
5. We shall be responsible for our actions.
6. We shall be fair in all matters to all persons.
7. We shall be considerate of the happiness and well being of others.
8. We shall be reasonable in our actions.

10. We shall not limit inquiring or testing by their consequences, on any matter, including these Commandments.

or

1. Respect and worship any deity within your faith tradition, if you follow one. Value and support the right of others to do the same.
2. Enjoy and support legal guarantees of freedom of religious belief, religious practice, assembly and speech for all.
3. Do not use obscene speech in the name of the deities of any religion.
4. Follow the guidance of your faith or secular tradition every day of the week, because every day is important.
5. Help to establish social safety nets so that the very young, the elderly, the sick, mentally ill, physically disabled, unemployed, poor and broken will receive adequate medical attention and enjoy at least a minimum standard of living.
6. Minimize the harm you do to others and yourself. Treat others as you would wish to be treated.
7. Do not engage in sexual activity with another person, which is coercive, unsafe, manipulative, public, or outside of a committed monogamous relationship.
8. Do not steal the property of others, except in case of emergency (and then only if you attempt to replace or pay for it later).
9. Do not lie, either in or out of court. Be honest and truthful at all times.
10. Attempt to be satisfied with your current standard of living; do not obsess over the possessions of others; that path leads to unhappiness.

Answer 2

Sorry Kayla, but the Old 10 are as new today as they were when they were included in the Mosaic Law. Did you know that the first 5 books of the Bible contain the complete law as given to Israel? The 10 commandments as being the law of God could possibly be compared to the preamble of the Constitution as being the whole of our constitution. What was true then is still true today. While you may not want to be held accountable for your actions or have restrictions placed on what you do, or do not do, God's word is still absolute, and it's authority is still in full effect now, as then. Obedience is always the best recourse.

Answer 3

They haven't changed in centuries.....The Ten commandements even flowed over into the New Testament. There also has not been a newer version written since. That should tell you something.>>>>>>>>>Why would God want them changed now? He wouldn't. He doesn't or He would have already summoned someone to rewrite them or restate them just as He did in Matthew. The Bible says......"Now and forever". Just follow the rules and all will be well! :0) Hope this help.

Answer 4

besides not kill or scouse borrow? do not devote Adultery. i'm tremendously particular that even in an earthly international, do not cheat on your spouse is tremendously proper. Neither shalt thou undergo fake witness against thy neighbor. this could be an prolonged thank you to declare do not lie. Which returned, even in an earthly international, lies are considered as a nasty element. Honor thy father and thy mom. Your mothers and dads gave you life, they raised you and for sturdy or sick they have molded the guy you're at the instant. They deserve appreciate, to not be disregarded while previous in some abode, or to be mistreated. particular their are multiple undesirable mothers and dads available, yet do not ignore regarding the numerous large mothers and dads available, do not they deserve appreciate? The final one is do not envy others' possessions and relish what you have, returned Envy is a petty emotion, wont you settle.

Answer 5

1. If you must believe in God, call it a Higher Power instead. If you feel the need to be religious, adopt one of the religions the celebrities follow because everyone knows that people who make movies are smarter than everyone else.
2. Wear a red string on your wrist and/or an amulet to remind you of your Higher Power/religion and to protect you from evil.
3. If you get cut off in traffic or in any other way become irritated, feel free to use any curse word that comes to your mind. Your Higher Power doesn't have a name and won't care.
4. Sunday is made for sleeping in, watching football and drinking beer.
5. Your parents are idiots and should be treated accordingly.
6. Driving drunk is okay because everybody does it, and if you run someone over and kill them, their family will get over it and you'll get community service.
7. Cheating on your husband or wife is okay as long as they don't find out about it. What they don't know won't hurt them.
8. Stealing is okay as long as it's little stuff that belongs to big companies, like pens and paperclips from your job, and stealing bigger things is okay if you don't get caught and if it's something you really deserve.
9. Gossip is okay because everyone does it, and your feelings have been hurt so many times, so why shouldn't other people have to suffer too?
10. If your neighbor has something you want, you should do whatever it takes to get something like it or something better because you deserve to live the good life more than anyone else does.

Answer 6

The commandments are the same.... they don't need a refresher course or a re-mix session featuring Puff Daddy & Kanye West

Answer 7

I'm not sure about 10, but the unofficial 11th would be: "Thou shalt not use the Check Spelling button, or correct punctuation, on Yahoo Answers."

Seriously...take a look at how badly the english language gets butchered on this site.

Answer 8

HERE IS MY PROBLEM ,,, WHY ARE THERE 10 ? YOU DONT NEED 10 ... I THINK THE LIST WAS INFLATED TO GET IT TO 10, ITS A VERY PADDED LIST , HERE IS WHAT THEY DID. ABOUT 5,000 YEARS AGO A BUNCH OF RELIGIOUS HUSTLERS GOT TOGETHER TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO CONTROL PEOPLE, HOW TO KEEP THEM IN LINE, THEY KNEW PEOPLE WERE BASICALLY STUPID AND WOULD BELIEVE ANYTHING THEY WERE TOLD THAT GOD HAD BROUGHT THEM SOME COMMANDMENTS, UP ON A MOUNTAIN WHEN NO ONE WAS AROUND, BUT LET ME ASK YOU THIS ? WHEN THEY WERE SITTING AROUND MAKING THIS **** UP, WHY DID THEY PICK 10 WHY NOT 9 OR 11? I WILL TELL YOU WHY BECAUSE 10 SOUNDS OFFICIAL, 10 SOUNDS IMPORTANT, THEY KNEW IF THEY SAID 11 NO ONE WOULD TAKE IT SERIOUSLY .. 10 IS BASIS FOR THE DECIMAL SYSTEM, ITS A DECADE ITS A VERY SATISFYING NUMBER .. THE TOP 10, THE 10 MOST WANTED .. THE 10 BEST DRESSED .. SO HAVING 10 WAS REALLY A MARKETING DESCION ,, ITS INFLATED DOCUMENT DERIVED TO SELL BETTER, I WILL SHOW YOU HOW YOU CAN REDUCE THE NUMBER OF COMMANDMENTS AND COME UP WITH SOMETHING THAT'S A LITTLE MORE WORKABLE AND LOGICAL.. WE WILL START WITH THE FIRST 3 I AM THE LORD THY GOD THOU SHALL NOT HAVE STRANGE GODS BEFORE ME .. THALL SHALL NOT TAKE THE NAME OF THE LORD THY GOD IN VAIN.. THOU SHALL KEEP HOLY THE SABBATH. RIGHT OFF THE BAT THE FIRST 3 PURE BULL CRAP ! SABBATH DAY.. LORDS NAME ... STRANGE GODS ... SPOOKY LANGUAGE ! DESIGNED AND TO SCARE AND CONTROL PRIMITIVE PEOPLE IN NO WAY DOES SUPERSTITIOUS NONSENSE LIKE THIS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE LIVES OF CIVILIZED PEOPLE IN THE 21ST CENTURY.. WIPE OUT THE FIRST 3 AND NOW YOUR DOWN TO 7!.. NEXT .. HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER OBEDIENCE .. RESPECT FOR AUTHORITY.. JUST ANOTHER NAME FOR CONTROLLING PEOPLE .. TRUTH IS OBEDIENCE AND RESPECT SHOULD NOT BE AUTOMATIC .. THEY SHOULD BE EARNED.. AND BASED ON THE PARENTS PERFORMANCE ! SOME PARENTS DESERVE RESPECT .. MOST OF THEM DONT .. PERIOD ! NOW YOUR DOWN TO 6!! NOW IN THE INTEREST OF LOGIC .. SOMETHING RELIGION IS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE WITH .. I WILL JUMP AROUND THE LIST A LITTLE BIT .. THOU SHALL NOT STEAL .. THOU SHALL NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS.. STEALING AND LYING !! ACTUALLY THESE 2 BOTH PROHIBIT THE SAME KIND OF BEHAVIOR.. DISHONESTY IS STEALING AND LYING ! SO WE DONT NEED 2 .. INSTEAD YOU COMBINE THEM AND YOU CALL IT THOU SHALL NOT BE DISHONEST. AND SUDDENLY YOUR DOWN TO 5!! NOW AS LONG AS WE ARE COMBINING.. I GOT 2 OTHERS THAT BELONG TOGETHER .. THOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY .. THOU SHALL NOT COVET THY NEIGHBORS WIFE ... ONCE AGAIN THESE 2 PROHIBIT THE SAME KIND OF BEHAVIOR .. IN THIS CASE MARITAL INFIDELITY .. IN THIS CASE COVETING TAKES PLACE IN THE MIND .. SO WE DONT WANT TO OUTLAW FANTASIZING ABOUT SOMEONE ELSE'S WIFE .. OTHERWISE MEN WILL HAVE NOTHING TO THINK ABOUT :) BUT MARITAL FIDELITY IS A GOOD IDEA ... SO WE WILL KEEP THE IDEA .. AND CALL THIS ONE THOU SHALL NOT BE UNFAITHFUL! NOW YOUR DOWN TO 4!!!!! WHEN YOU PONDER IT .. HONESTY AND FIDELITY ALL REALLY PART OF THE SAME OVERALL VALUE .. SO IN TRUTH YOU COULD COMBINE THE 2 HONESTY COMMANDMENTS ...WITH THE 2 FIDELITY COMMANDMENTS .. AND CALL THE WHOLE THING THOU SHALL ALWAYS BE HONEST AND FAITHFUL TO THE PROVIDER OF THY SEX ! AND WERE DOWN TO 3!!!!! NEXT THOU SHALL NOT COVET THY NEIGHBORS GOODS, THIS ONE IS JUST PLAIN STUPID ! COVETING YOUR NEIGHBORS GOODS IS WHAT KEEPS THE ECONOMY GOING .. YOUR NEIGHBOR GETS A VIBRATOR THAT PLAYS OH COME ALL YEE FAITHFUL ...YOU WANNA GET ONE TOO !!!! COVETING CREATES JOBS .. LEAVE IT ALONE YOUR DOWN TO THE 2 HONESTY AND FIDELITY COMMANDMENTS ,, AND THE LAST ONE THOU SHALL NOT KILL ! MURDER ,,, THE 5TH COMMANDMENT .. WHEN YOU PONDER IT RELIGION HAS NEVER REALLY HAD A BIG PROBLEM WITH MURDER.. MORE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN KILLED IN THE NAME OF GOD THEN FOR ANY OTHER REASON .. LOOK AT THE THE MIDDLE EAST .. THE CRUSADES ... THE INQUISITION ,, THE WORLD TRADE CENTERS ... AND SEE HOW SERIOUSLY THE RELIGIOUS FOLKS TAKE THOU SHALL NOT KILL .. THE MORE DEVOUT THEY ARE THE MORE THEY SEE MURDER AS BEING NEGOTIABLE ! IT ALL DEPENDS ON WHOSE DOING THE KILLING AND WHOSE GETTING KILLED . WITH ALL THIS IN MIND , I LEAVE YOU WITH MY REVISED LIST OF THE 2 COMMANDMENTS .. THOU SHALL BE HONEST AND FAITHFUL TO THE PROVIDER OF THY SEX ... AND THOU SHALL TRY REAL HARD NOT TO KILL ANYONE .. UNLESS OF COURSE THEY PRAY TO DIFFERENT INVISIBLE MAN THAN THE ONE YOU PRAY TOO.. 2 IS ALL YOU NEED, MOSES COULD HAVE CARRIED THEM DOWN IN HIS FRIGGIN POCKET .. NOW I WONT MIND THEM PUTTING THAT LIST ON THE CHURCH WALL ... AS LONG AS THEY ADDED * THOU SHALL KEEP THY RELIGION TO THY SELF !

I'M DONE !

Answer 9

I hate to dissappoint you, but I believe that many of them would be the same, with the exception being "honor the Sabbath day." I believe that one would be changed to "Honor every day; it belongs to the Lord."

Answer 10

We only need two to take care of the old ten, or any new ones.

Love of God and love of fellow man.
