Hi Vivek
Thanks for your clear thoughts to Santosh on a link much debated on Goanet
called a "rock hard religious moral code" strongly propounded by at least
one person, absurdly and unceasingly. I have said something similar to you
on this issue in earlier Goanet posts. However, I want to go a bit further
and say that the first part of the ten commandments is very much an absolute
demand on humans to be unthinking slaves to a presumed Deity. Even further,
the view that any religion has the monoploly of 'truth' is too ridiculous
for words.
Cornel

Dear Santosh:
I couldnt agree with ou more!
In my opinion the ten commandments can be abstracted
into two basic ones.
The first four are of the "My way or the highway" kind
and are reflective of the intolerant nature of the
semitic religions and their presumed monopoly over the
"truth"
The next six can be summed up into : "Do unto others
what you would want others to do unto you".
I sincerely believe that no religious foundation is
required for good moral conduct and if everyone
sincerley believed in "do unto others what
others....." then the world would have been a lot
peaceful place wihout satis,witch burning,
untouchability, apartheid,inquisitions and genocides.
Just my humble two cents.
vivek
