Wacky Wednesday--The Ten Commandments Don’t Matter

Note: Before reading the following arguments, please understand that they are not what I believe. On Wednesdays, I deliberately argue for wrong ideas, challenging my listeners to call and defend the obvious right answer, which is usually far harder than one would expect. This is a summary of what Wacky Andrew will be arguing, not a representation of what real Andrew believes.

~They’re not for us, they’re specifically for the Jews, unless you think you were delivered from Egypt.
~We don’t obey them.
~Everyone works on Sunday or else causes others to do so.
~Blasphemy is legal and protected by the First Amendment
~Adultery is common and usually legal, or else just barely illegal but not enforced, like here in Arizona.
~Coveting is the basis of modern marketing and, arguably, the American Dream
~Even if you consider these things bad, you balk at making them capital offenses the way the Bible does.
~How many people even know what they say, especially among those who claim they are super-important?
~We live under Grace, not under The Law.
