I don't think the bible itself specifically calls them the 10 commandments but they are the 10 statements that the bible said God wrote with his finger on stone.

The ten commandments were written by God in stone.
Many people in America used to rest one day out of 7, Keeping the Sabbath.
When I was growing up stores were not open on Sundays.
That is a time many here do not remember.
But it is also a time when many say America was great.
That can be quite a rabbit hole to go down discussing keeping the Sabbath.
I think the 10 commandments are pretty good. For both legal and psychological direction.
Even the laws that were not the 10 commandments about not boiling a kid in its mothers milk is a good law.

A corvette Stingray
Is a corvette Stingray.
Most people do not call it a Chevy.
A Porsche is a Porsche.
Not many people call it a Volkswagen
But in your way of thinking it is all the same..

A Country where no-one under 25 believes the biblical creation story.
by fulltimestudent inno icelanders under the age of 25 believe the creation story that god was responsible for creating the universe, a new poll claims.the poll, commissioned by the icelandic ethical humanist association, claims that 93.9 per cent in the under 25 category responded that the universe was created by the big bang.
just over 6 per cent responded with ‘don’t know’ or ‘other’.
none of the respondents, however, believed that the universe had been created by god.

Iceland has 1/3 the population of the little county I live in in Florida. Pinellas county.
It would not be very hard to make them all believe in whatever they want to make them believe in. There are not very many of them.

I think all of mans problems are because man dose not follow the 10 commandments. - James Brown
Are you going by the Elohist version at Exodus 20 or the Yahwist list at Exodus 34?
It was very important to Yahweh not to cook a kid in its mothers milk. In fact I think you are on to something. That is what's wrong with the world today, too much boiling of kids in milk!
That is mosaic law not the 10 commandments.

In my opinion the bible is written with symbols, metaphors, allegories and other literary devices and one must spend a lifetime studying and reading it.
I think all of mans problems are because man dose not follow the 10 commandments.
Gods desire to be worshipped by humans is God directing people to focus on him and the 10 commandments.
On this earth people can choose if they want to live in an orderly Godly way or be free to pursue whatever whim pleases their fancy.
No one knows what happens after we die. But the bible says that those who love God and his ways will be with him. And those who do not love God and his ways will not be with him.
Why does God act the way he does? No one knows for sure. The Bible describes his actions as being based on love.
I think you can spend the rest of your life trying to figure out and find answers to why things are the way they are from there is no God to various theories on why things are the way they are.
In my opinion a loving creator would and did give man free will.
I can't prove but that is what I think.

Evolution is a Fact #1 - Protein Functional Redundancy
by cofty ini intend for this to be one of a series of bite-sized ops on the evidence for evolution.. introduction to dna genes are sequences of dna made up of words (codons) each of which are three letters (bases) long.
there are only four letters in the genetic alphabet (acg&t) each word or codon is the recipe for one amino acid.
there are 20 different amino acids in living organisms.

James Brown, I think you're trolling :)
How about giving me some of your money instead?
I guess theoretically, I am trolling.
Most people here are trolling the post something to elicit a response, a bite.
I don't think I am trying to piss people off.
I say watch Hovinds videos and believe or don't believe.
And then after I originally said that, I just post to other people posting.

So when people die and they wanted to live in sin and deny God, it makes sense to me that they would go to hell a place of darkness and eternal cutting off.
And this is one of the reasons I do not believe in God. Because a maniac that would torture people for eternity just because he can't be bothered to give clear evidence of his existence smacks of bullshit. Its a God that I would truly abhor and this universe although sometimes cruel and ambivalent is not remotely as wicked as the God that you are describing.
I personally don't believe that God tortures people in hell. I think people that go to hell torture themselves because after being given all the information they made the wrong decision.
Most likely to satisfy there urge to practice one of the 7 deadly sins.
I think hell is just like when I worked in the jail. People did wrong they knew they were doing wrong and they were there to do their time. To pay for their crime.
I've seen many hard guys go from hard guys to cry baby's when they get life sentences or 10 to 20.
I don't mean to try to scare you. I am not. It's just a big slice of life, I have seen.
Either Hovind, the bible, God makes sense to you or it doesn't
