Some say the fourth commandment is Keeping the Sabath Holy and combine the covets and others do not. According Wikipedia anyway.<BR/>But aside from all that, my real point is that the whole I'm your God and there's no other God's but me and keeping the sabath holy stuff has nothing to do with ethics in my opinion. And everytime I see the results of a survey that say something like 80% of Americans would not vote for a person to be president no matter what if they were atheist simply reminds me why I hate people.Dr. Bitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13568570859981368717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-50374283985594793772008-03-24T18:31:00.000-05:002008-03-24T18:31:00.000-05:00Isn't "honor thy father and thy mother" the 8th co...Isn't "honor thy father and thy mother" the 8th commandment?Austin Gortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281239771248780430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-74996485257416274732008-03-24T17:35:00.000-05:002008-03-24T17:35:00.000-05:00So honoring and respecting your parents isn't ethi...So honoring and respecting your parents isn't ethical?

Personally, I don't think the first four commandments have anything to do with ethics.<BR/>And even many of the final six have gray areas. But I suppose 'guideline' would be a good term to use for those six.Dr. Bitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13568570859981368717noreply@blogger.com
