What is your argument here?
the argument
Not your argument as I wasn't talking to you.
Just talk about the first THREE commandments.
you are just lost here.
No, that would be you. Try reading the conversation before jumping
in.
there are TEN commandments
No *****, Sherlock.
for you to suggest that the ten commandments are not a historical
example of early law giving is just ridicules
Hardly, as it's a Judeo-Christian myth, not history. At any rate,
what I was suggesting (claiming outright actually) is that U.S. law
is not based on the Ten Commandments at all.
and fly's in the face of truth which has been aknowledged
throughout history by virtually all legal researchers and
scholars.
Which ones?
And I'll ask again (you this time): which of our laws are based on
the Ten Commandments? To save time, simply talk about the first
three commandments, and the U.S. laws based upon them.

you are so stuck on those first three commandments that you cant seem
to get a clue. as i said before, there are 10 commandments, not
three.
Really? Which 10, like exactly?
Which Ten Commandments?
First Tables of Stone (Exodus 20)
("which Moses didst break")
Second Tables of Stone (Exodus 34)
("the words that were on the first")

house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me.

2. You shall not make for yourself a graven image. You shall not bow down to
them or serve them.

5. Honor your father and your mother.
5. Six days shalt thou work, but on the seventh thou shalt rest.

Go on Einstein, tell us "which Ten" commandments are you personally referring
to?
And which ones are other's referring to when they spew "The Ten" commandments?
