The Ten Commandments

Suppose a bill was proposed consisting of the Ten Commandments, taken right from the Bible, word for word. Would you support it? Should Congress pass it?

For the rest of them! Only about 3 are laws here, today. Stealing and killing, for sure, and to some extent, bearing false witness -- perjury.

Re: The Ten Commandments

I voted no. How would we decide how to keep the sabbath holy?
