What the Ten Commandments DO NOT say:
There is nothing about the protection of children from cruelty.
Nothing about rape.
Nothing about slavery
Nothing about genocide.
o In fact, some of these very offenses are positively recommended.
o “God tells Moses to instruct his followers about the conditions under which they may buy or sell slaves and the rules governing the sale of their daughters.”
o Then there is the notorious verses forfeiting “life for life, eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.
o “Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.” Verse (22:18). This was, for centuries, the warrant for the Christian torture and burning of women who did not conform.
