This is inspired by another thread started by EnhancedSpirit. I was just curious as to how people on this forum, Christian/Jewish or not, felt about these rules. Do you agree with them all or only some?
If there are any that you don't agree with then is there a caveate or rewording which you think could make the commandment more agreeable for you?
After a few other people have posted, Ill post my own views but I'm at school right now and I know as soon as I start trying to write something with a little more depth to it, I'll have to stop half way through.
Edit: a poll will follow when I get home and figure out a way of condensing the commandments into 100 characters or less per option. Sorry for the wait.
Edit 2: okay because I can't fit the commandments into the poll without paraphrasing them, Ill just list 1-10 and descriptions of them are as follows:

2nd Commandment; Verses 4-6: "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image,
or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath,
or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor
serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers
upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me. And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments."
3rd Commandment; Verse 7: "Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain."
4th Commandment; Verses 8-11: "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it."
