The real Ten Commandments are

The real Ten Commandments are found in Exodus 34:10-28. They are highly ethnocentric and do not apply to Gentiles.

The Ten Commandments: a

The Ten Commandments: a couple of slabs of fake stone brought down a hill in Egypt by Charlton Heston.

Religion and Holywood were made for each other. They both have the same flair for melodramatic fakery and special effects.

It's awesome that atheists

It's awesome that atheists actually know this!!!!! The real Ten Commandments are as follows:

1. For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
2. Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
3. The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.
4. But the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.
.5. Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
6. And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year’s end.
7. Thrice in the year shall all your menchildren appear before the LORD God, the God of Israel.
8. Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.
9. The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God.
10. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk.

Thank you and have a great day!!!

This is actually your version

This is actually your version of the 10 commandments, my friend. If you ask a Protestant, they'll give you another list. If you ask me, I'd give you another list.

So you are saying the Bible

So you are saying the Bible is full of inconsistencies and can be interpreted many different ways? Yet we should follow it because it's the infallible word of god?
Hmmmmm I do not follow your logic please explain.
What are your Ten Commandments? Please tell me where it says in the Bible that those are the Ten Commandments..
Also how can religion be objectively moral is the text is subject to different interpretation? How do you know your interpretation is the right one?

Burn Your Bible,

I was referring to the twelve curses in Deuteronomy 27:15-26 = https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=deuteronomy27:17-26&version...

These curses were written on large stones whitewashed with lime that were placed on Mount Ebal to curse Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali. IMO they are much better than any version of the Ten Commandments.

Bonus question:

Do you know when some versions of the Bible got 66 books and other versions got 80 books?

MCD,

Although some Bibles do omit certain verses entirely the basic stories are the same in all of the assorted "Protestant" versions. The "Catholic" versions have more books but the common books they share with the "Protestant" versions are fairly consistent.
