10 commandments and more

Dude...I hate when people use 'god' to make them feel as if they have not sinned....or to just completely erase things in their life that happened in the past.

Sorry took I took so long to move them. :/

Amen.
And I especially hate it when they feel it gives them liscence to repeat the same errors.

Exactly. Technically, they can never do anything 'wrong' because they will always be 'forgiven.'
So, what is the point in these so called 10 Commandments when you can just blow them off and get 'forgiven' everytime you feel like asking for 'forgiveness?'

Yet another reason why I choose to be Agnostic.
There are so many flaws in relegion.

Im afraid you have missed the point of them.....

No. I get the whole concept of a relegion but I do not need that either.
Then again, everyone takes every relegion a different way. Whether or not it is a Christian versus a Jew or a Christian versus a Christian...they will never have the same view point. They will always differ in their beliefs.

What I am trying to get at is, there is no point in you trying to start an arguement with me because neither of us will go anywhere.

Basically, do not ask me what my concept of relegion is, unless you wish to know what I think. If you ask me to try to 'prove a point' (if there is even one to prove) than do not bother. I am not wasting my time on it.

No, actually, he is right. You are kind of missing the point of them.
Especially because the 10 commandments were originally Jewish, and they have different methods than the Christians.
Say a Christian breaks something that's not his. He genuinely wants forgiveness, and God supposedly grants it because Jesus Christ died for everyone's sin. Everything goes back to how it was before.
But the Jews don't believe Jesus Christ died for their sins...
Say a Jew eats non-kosher food for years until every cell in his body is 'tainted' so that it imprisons a Jewish soul (that's the theological explanation for why they eat kosher food). He would have to genuinely repent, and then eat nothing but kosher food to get new cells to replace the tainted ones. 'God' would 'forgive him', but he still has to work to solve the problem...

That's the goal of the ten commandments. The Christians just perverted it all by giving everyone a 'feel sick and go home free for the day' card. Which somehow is supposed to teach mercy, but all it does is leave a lack of self-control.

No. I get it. I was not saying that the 10 Commandments were originally Christian.
I was just trying to get the point across that no one whether they be in two completely different relegions or the exact same relegion, will never have the exact same point of view.

You missunderstood me.

Gods forgivness is not eternal.

Well let me say first ...im not a christain but i do believe in a god

I think what im trying to say is if you sin and ask for forgivness with intent to sin again he is gonna know.You can either repent and mean it or not repent at all.i probably sound like some holy roller.....im not trust me....
