As well building on your lack of understanding with the ten commandments. Not all of them were meant to be enforced, they go from being completely unenforceable to being entirely things that need to be prevented.
As well news flash again, the ten commandments are not the basis of a whole lot. If you honestly think that they are some how some sort of cornerstone to Christian or Jewish belief you're even more ignorant than you've already let on.
For starters, I don't appreciate you insinuating that I believe "the Bible should be shoved in a closet while I go on with my life." As I've said, I'm religious... YOU are trying to make me sound like someone that has little or no faith, and that simply isn't true.

My highlighting of the ten commandments illustrates how the laws of the U.S. have evolved over the decades. 100 years ago, you could have been arrested for breaking many of the 10 commandments.

I love how you AGAIN place words in my mouth by insinuating that I view the 10 commandments as the cornerstone of the christian or jewish religion.

That is just so sad Cody, a very heinous crime. My prayers go out to the victim and her family.

Yes, it's very sick and sad, WDLove.

My son was severely burned through an accident when he was a toddler. Lost all the skin on his face and chest. Had to be airlifted to a burn center. He was actually fine after a few months and now you cannot tell he was ever burned.

This is a picture of him about 3 weeks after the burn after he'd come home. (This is about 3 years ago.) He's holding carmex - we had to keep his lips covered with it because they would dry out easily. He couldn't wear clothes for over a month. We just kept a diaper on him and gauze to cover the chest. We had to debride his burns (or have a nurse come and do it) frequently.

The accident happened because I'd put a big measuring cup of water in the microwave, boiled it, then popped in a teabag to brew some tea and left to go take a shower...he was toddling around the kitchen with my husband and he came along and pulled the teabag string out of curiosity and down came the entire boiling cup of water on him, splashing him on the chest and face. My husband was alone in the kitchen when it happened and has never forgiven himself since, but I know it was just a terrible accident. Thank God he is fine today and that it didn't hit him in the eyes.



I just want to say, after visiting the burn center, that burns are some of the very worst injuries a person can sustain. They are horribly painful, leave scars, and are mentally debilitating.

Whoever did this to this young woman should never be a part of society again.

I agree... people that commit such heinous acts should be placed in a deep dark hole for the remainder of their lives.

P.S. Sorry to hear about your son.

Errrr, actually no. Laws are guidlines of conduct put in place to facilitate, and in most cases even make possible at all, the co-existance of people in a (relatively) confined space, i.e. societies.

Religion can take up the role of bolstering these rules and norms, but isn't really the root of them. That's why all religions pretty much reflect the real life circumstances of the culture and society they originated from (and are practised in).

The rest is historical presidence, deliberation, philosophy etc. In the end it's all about survival. Just like everything else.

I don't think you understood what he was saying. He isn't saying the laws we use today are used because we see that is what religion taught us.

He is saying such beliefs of treating one another how we want treated stems from religion.

The main concepts of religion is to be kind to your fellow man.

That could be. I'm pretty sure that it's a very ancient concept. Not sure though, whether or not the first people to come up with it were religious folks, philosphers...or goat farmers.

Not at all. I was simply replying to your claim:

I guess you are referring to "all" religions here? Or did you mean to say "The main concept of all major religions practised today is "to be kind to your fellow man"?

I'd certainly be more inclined to agree with that statement. Eventhough it is still a bit to over-simplefied.

The exact year? No. But they've got some pretty accurate ballpark figures. Good enough for me.

Just because nobody seems to have brought it up... This whole concept of an eye for an eye was written down by Hammurabi in his Code of Laws way back in good ol' Babylon.

I'm so sorry to hear about your son Cody. Very happy to hear that he healed completely. I agree burns are a devastating injury. I haven't ever directly taken care of a burn victim. My wife has.

Possible, - yet highly freckin' unlikely.

Get over it. Judeo-Christian mythology isn't the center of the universe, and is just another cultural subtext.

BTW, what do you base your in formation on that scholars "aren't even guessing"?

I'd certainly be more inclined to agree with that statement. Eventhough it is still a bit to over-simplified.
Just to be clear, I believe that this is the major concept taught by Christianity. Most other religions and Jesus taught that one should do no harm. I do not believe that anyone knows what "being kind" means. Years ago, I lived in Alabama and charities were collecting money to help the "poor blacks". These charities were run by the local "Christian" white power structure. Would you have refused to contribute as I did? (Currently, we are using white phosphorus devices in Iraqi cities where civilians can be burned. Do you justify these activities?) sam

Lots of documents have been purposably destroyed over the years also. During wars and such. Not that it matters... earliest written work does not = first origin.
Get over it. Judeo-Christian mythology isn't the center of the universe, and is just another cultural subtext.
That is your opinion, yes. Certainly not fact.
BTW, what do you base your in formation on that scholars "aren't even guessing"?
What information might that be? Not basing any information, as I am saying it's impossible to date such a thing.

Possible, - yet highly freckin' unlikely.
Um, most if not all of the Old Testament would have been passed on orally, perhaps for millennia, prior to being written down. And many of the stories can be found in other places as well. The story of the flood, for instance, is also found in Sumerian and Babylonian mythology in almost exactly the same form as in the OT. Of course that could just as easily mean that the Sumerians and Babylonians copied it from the Jews as the other way around. Or it could mean that they both got it from a common source. More likely is that the stories originated in some proto-culture from which these other cultures later split off.

Regardless, these stories were definitely around for a very long time, some of them probably for more than 5000 years. Though I'd be seriously impressed if you found documentation of anything from more than 5000 years ago.

Opinion? Yup, but certainly not as unsubstantiated and unintersted as yours.

That's why your opinion doesn't mean sh1t. Anybody can spread FUD and claim their opinion is as good as anybody else's, - guess what? It's not true.

Why do you even participate in arguments you quite obviously know nothing about? Or are you only interested in spreading your fundamentalist, literalist crap?

Have you been touched by his noodly appendage?
