    Damn, that’s probably what they believe.

    He made 10 commandments that He personally etched on a stone tablet. So clear and easy to understand.

    But for all the exceptions to this stone tablet he had humans write them in random pages in the old testament.

        If you believe the lore, at least the 10 commandments were written BY god. The only thing we have that is written BY god says not to kill. And we’re going to allow humans to write in exceptions?

          Yes because they validate my prejudices and make my life easier.

          Otherwise I’d have to be right about stuff to be this sanctimonious; that sounds both difficult and unpleasant.

      The Ten Commandments appear three times in the Bible, and there’s no reward for guessing correctly whether the versions are consistent with one another.

        Do any of them include an appendix with all the exceptions listed?

        Honestly, I think the somebody should work on this. Create a version of the 10 commandments with all the exceptions written onto separate tablets. Then any time Christians try to get the 10 commandments posted into a building, just add the appendix tablets.
