The 10 Commandments: Bronze Age nonsense

• Christian Fundamentalism , • Skeptics & Atheists

In Slate Christopher Hitchens writes about Judge Roy Moore - "a fool and a publicity-hound" - and the Ten Commandments.

One is presuming (is one not?) that this is the same god who actually created the audience he was addressing. This leaves us with the insoluble mystery of why he would have molded ("in his own image," yet) a covetous, murderous, disrespectful, lying, and adulterous species. Create them sick, and then command them to be well? What a mad despot this is, and how fortunate we are that he exists only in the minds of his worshippers.
