They are commandments set in a specific religion. So you tell me if these are valid for all religions and people without religion.
1. I am the lord thy god. - Cant get any more specific than that
1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me - Uhm yeah
2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image - Hmm that seems like an islamic passage about muhummad
3. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain - God Dammit, that is against my free speech.
4. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy - But football is on sunday
5. Honour thy father and thy mother - That seems pretty logical, but you didnt need to tell me that
6. Thou shalt not kill - I guess christians of history just skipped this one
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery - Not a whole lot of christians care about this one either
8. Thou shalt not steal - Could have gotten this on on our own
9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour - Dont lie to your neighbor, sure.
10. Thou shalt not covet (neighbor's wife) - Pretty much the same as adultery but oh well.
theres 11 because depending on which account you follow the first two are intermingled.
So tell me, how is this not mixing church and state as per the rules outlined in oklahomas constitution.
