You make a left-field statement about how I live my life with no actual knowledge. I go to church twice per year. Everyone who believes in God isn't some weirdo religious fanatic. I've lived my life to its fullest every day. There is no robot-like subservice. At least nothing more than you. Why do you follow the commandments handed down to Moses? Are you aware you do this every day of your life. You teach it to your kids as well.
The scale of ones belief is not the point. You either buy the cow or you do not. If you believe in a god then you do the dedication that you practice that faith is not relevant.
I do not follow the ten commandments. Of course you do know that there are many versions of them depending on the faith. The jews who WROTE the original scriptures are a bit different then most of the books now.
I will go with King James version
1 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. I have no god at all.
2 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. I make what I want.
3 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain Do this one all the time to prove lightning will not strike me.
4 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Nope As I do not worship any god I have better things to do..
5 Honour thy father and thy mother Respect them sure. How does one honor ones parents? Would that not violate #1 i some way?
6 Thou shalt not kill. Well this one is stupid. I have killed allot. I hunt for food. Someone comes after my family I will kill them if necessary.
7 Thou shalt not commit adultery. Well I would not I love my wife. That said Many do.
8 Thou shalt not steal. Agreed for the most part.
9 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. I have no neighbors
10 Thou shalt not covet. Bull I covet lots of things it is what gives humans the drive to succeed and to do more.
