      Throughout history,Jewish & Christian communities alike have found the Sixth Commandment impossible to obey. Yahweh’s demands are such that no society could satisfy them fully.A tragic dimension: a follower of that deity must always be at fault,through sin,or complicity with sin.

      The killing or the adultery?

      That's pretty easy to obey tho, it's only about unjustified killing

      Is it? In the King James translation it was simply ‘Thou shalt not kill’, as I recall. Inaccurate translation?

      "Murder" is probably a more accurate translation

          That’s interesting, I didn’t know there were different interpretations of this commandment.

          From the catechism: "Do not slay the innocent and the righteous" "Someone who defends his life is not guilty of murder even if he is forced to deal his aggressor a lethal blow" "The teaching of the Church does not exclude recourse to the death penalty"

          So that’s the Catholic interpretation. Would be interesting to find out the original Hebrew & its precise meaning.

          I doubt it'd be any different than the standard Catholic/Christian interpretation. The Hebrews weren't Jains.

          This is standard human morality btw. It wasn't just the 10 commandments. In Hinduism there's a general "don't kill" rule but there's an obvious nuance to it. In the Bhagavad Gita Krishna bitch-slaps Arjuna for not wanting to kill righteously in war.

          But we’re supposedly dealing with divine morality here (though Evolist wouldn’t call it that). It makes more sense to me that a divine commandment would be very straightforward & absolute, with no ifs or buts. But maybe that’s not how the Hebrews saw it.

          You're assuming a sorta modern Sola Scriptura approach to the Old Testament, that's the problem. Those laws were didactic like a lot of ancient near eastern legal systems, it was flexible and could be amended & refined under certain conditions. That's Jesus' point on the law.

          Yes,the most interesting thing about Christianity is its ‘impossibility’.How can one love all men?This strange demand, so impractical&contrary to human instinct,is what is fascinating.Only a few sects have really tried-Cathars,for instance.But even they couldn’t avoid waging war.
