Posting the Five Fine Commandments

Huckabee is correct about the ten commandments. Since the ancoent times of Cecil B. deMill, these have formjed the basis for American society. Such central documents ought to be made av available to all students, especially those new to out shared culture.

1. Isn't it clear that these are historic writings that have deeply influenced our Judeo-Islmamo-Christtian culture?

It is unimaginable that any of our forebears (reintroduction of non sexist term!) would not have learned of the ten commandments and consider them central to our rule of law ..unless we include Massasoit, Ch. Seattle and Sitting bull as a forbears.

2. The format of the ten commndments should, however, be authentic. They MUST be put up in a historically n authentic Hebrew.
As a compromise, we can use modern Hebrew typography since there is no existing copy in the Canaanite script.
No vowels will be alloed. If the Deity had wanted to reveal the ten commandments in English, our Lord would have appeared 2000 or so years later when folks understood that language.

3. BOTH versions of the commandments should be listed .. there are two different versions in the Torah y' know!

4. If translations are offered they must be offered into all languages of instruction used at the school and must be accurate to the original Ivrit.

5. Translations must make it clear that the first commandment is written only to the Jews .. "I am Thy (the Jews's) God ".... The adaptation to all citizens (of Rome) by Constantine in the 300s should be explained in class.

6. Since the Deity also issues an additional 593 commandments for Jews only, and since the early Americans on New England took those commandments very seriously, these should be made available as well.

OK?
