Number 7.

suxex4ever:
The Ten Commandments, also known as the
Decalogue , are a set of biblical principles
relating to ethics and worship, which play a
fundamental role in Judaism and Christianity.

The 10 Commandments List, Short Form are:
1. You shall have no other gods before Me.
2. You shall not make idols.
3. You shall not take the name of the LORD your
God in vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
5. Honor your father and your mother.
6. You shall not murder.
7. You shall not commit adultery/fornication.
8. You shall not steal.
9. You shall not bear false witness against your
neighbor.
10. You shall not covet.

So, the question is which among them do you find difficult to obey

The new testament summarized it as Love your neighbour as yourself and love God. I believe that covers rape, abuse of power...
The golden rule covers all worthwhile laws of social conduct and is why 1- 5 look particularly silly - how can anyone be so misguided to believe that 1- 5 are so important? Those are not laws for the benefit and safe-keeping of the individual, they are there to keep the power structure in place. Why be explicit about those 10 in the old testament whilst ignoring more serious transgressions?

How do you legislate or even prove 5 and 10?

If you find it so difficult to obey why not just take it out of the story book. The person who wrote that is probably impotent. Just find a scripture in the Bible and twist it to mean fornication is good, or perhaps god wasn't talking about fornication in that part it means something else. Just keep twisting and twisting until you capture the minds of your gullible brethren. Hypocrites! cheesy

Off course the golden rule + the love of GOD, which is the summary in the new testament covers all.

It should be noted that 1-4 should not be joked with as it signifies the love and respect of GOD in that summary. However, one needs to be very careful with no5 and never place it above the love of GOD.

Thou shalt not commit adultery hard sha!

-Another one is "...Thou shalt not name the Name of the Lord in vain"
We do this mostly without even knowing. Eg:
* God punnish you there"
*OoooooooH God!" Ooh Jesus!
*Jesus Christ of Nazareth!"
*God Why?"
Etc.....
That sounds like a prayer to me grin

So, the question is which among them do you find difficult to obey

please modify your post.

The first and second number are one. Worshipping idol and having another God is the same. So the ordering is wrong. You shall not commit adultery is the SIXTH commandment. Make research please and make amendment to your post because it is not in order of the ten commandment

It's possible to follow the golden rule without so much as acknowledging any 'god' - societies with minimal religious interaction fare better than their religious counterparts in that regard.

1 - 5 are about cementing the power structure - establishing the supremacy of the religious authorities, to be followed by the family.


P.S.
Why was protecting people from rape not considered a priority in the old testament?

This is just the short form.Let me give you details of 1$2.
1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me .
2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or
that is in the earth beneath , or that is in the water under the earth . Thou shalt not bow down thyself to
them , nor serve them : for I the Lord thy God am a
jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me ; And shewing mercy unto thousands of
them that love me , and keep my commandments .
