Zitat des Tages über Gebote / Commandments:

The Ten Commandments have never been replaced as the moral basis upon which society rests. Edwin Louis Cole

Ten commandments yet seven deadly sins: conflict?

Douglas Coupland

The irony of the Supreme Court hearing on these cases last week and of the outright hostility that the Court has displayed against religion in recent years is that above the head of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is a concrete display of the Ten Commandments.

Cliff Stearns

In my book I specifically discussed the structural nature of injustice and offered Nine Touchstones of Goddess ethics as an alternative to the Ten Commandments of Biblical religion.

People who are offended by the Ten Commandments have a deeper problem than the stone that it's written on, I think.

Judy Martz

Mr. Speaker, the fact of the matter is that the Ten Commandments are a historical document that contains moral, ethical, and legal truisms that any person of any religion or even an atheist can recognize and appreciate.

Cliff Stearns

We may not all break the Ten Commandments, but we are certainly all capable of it. Within us lurks the breaker of all laws, ready to spring out at the first real opportunity.

Isadora Duncan

The Ten Commandments have never been replaced as the moral basis upon which society rests.

Edwin Louis Cole

I started growing up in a hurry and taking a lot of the philosophy I'd heard from church as a kid a lot more seriously - especially the Ten Commandments - and wondering how 'Thou shalt not kill' could be so absolutely ignored. It took me until I was in my 40s to write what I was thinking as a young soldier.

Dave Brubeck

Public opinion is stronger than the legislature, and nearly as strong as the ten commandments.

Charles Dudley Warner

Say what you will about the ten commandments, you must always come back to the pleasant fact that there are only ten of them.

H. L. Mencken

I've traveled all over the country for years speaking in churches, teaching the Ten Commandments. It's amazing if 2 percent of any congregation knows the Ten Commandments.

Randall Terry

At the end of the day, the Golden Rule is called the Golden Rule for a reason - do unto others as you would have done to you. In terms of commandments you could probably just do that one and you would be well off. If everybody could adhere to that one, we'd be OK, as long as a masochist wasn't in charge of people.

Chad Kroeger

The Ten Commandments are the most visible symbol because these commandments are recognized by Christians and Jews alike as being the foundation of our system of public morality.

Pat Robertson

What the ten commandments set forth is a strategy. This strategy is a strategy for dominion.

Gary North

Since the birth of modern Orthodox Judaism in 19th-century Germany, a central goal of the movement has been to normalize the observance of traditional Jewish law - to make it possible to follow all 613 biblical commandments assiduously while still participating in the reality of the modern world.

Noah Feldman

Once you depart from the Ten Commandments as being the foundation of right and wrong, you are in a free fall.

Randall Terry

If Moses had been paid newspaper rates for the Ten Commandments, he might have written the Two Thousand Commandments.

If Moses had gone to Harvard Law School and spent three years working on the Hill, he would have written the Ten Commandments with three exceptions and a saving clause.

Charles Morgan

We need to accept that the commandments of God aren't just a long list of good ideas. They aren't 'life hacks' from an Internet blog or motivational quotes from a Pinterest board.

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Love is the motivating principle by which the Lord leads us along the way towards becoming like Him, our perfect example. Our way of life, hour by hour, must be filled with the love of God and love for others. There is no surprise in that, since the Lord proclaimed those as the first and great commandments.

Henry B. Eyring

Here is the operating motto of the Obama White House: 'So let it be written, so let it be done!' Like Yul Brynner's Pharaoh Ramses character in Cecil B. DeMille's 'The Ten Commandments,' the demander in chief stands with arms akimbo issuing daily edicts to his constitution-subverting minions.

Michelle Malkin

We might come closer to balancing the Budget if all of us lived closer to the Commandments and the Golden Rule.

James E. Faust

No nation which has kept the commandments of God has ever perished, but I say to you that once freedom is lost, only blood - human blood - will win it back.

Ezra Taft Benson

Perhaps these Ten Commandments cases will be the turning point in the legal war against religion.

Cliff Stearns

I know a fellow who's as broke as the Ten Commandments.

John Phillips Marquand

Socialism violates at least three of the Ten Commandments: It turns government into God, it legalizes thievery and it elevates covetousness. Discussions of income inequality, after all, aren't about prosperity but about petty spite. Why should you care how much money I make, so long as you are happy?

Ben Shapiro

If you hide information from people, don't want people to see the Ten Commandments or don't want people to hear about Darwin, aren't we hiding things that we know from our future generations? I just think that that's incorrect.

John Mellencamp

The Ten Commandments are the divinely revealed law.

Roy Moore

I believe if more American children read the Ten Commandments and are taught what they mean, they will predictably engage in less crime.

Gary Bauer

'Thou shalt not get found out' is not one of God's commandments; and no man can be saved by trying to keep it.

Most of the Ten Commandments are negative. The purpose of law is not to mandate good behavior. That concept comes from the French Revolution.

Randall Terry

The Ten Commandments were not a suggestion.

Pat Riley
