@suzianne saidIn the teachings attributed to Jesus, did he ever instruct people to leave the definition of how his teachings ought to be understood to theologians? If so, where?
For example, every post you've leveled at me over the years has been fueled by some bizarre motivation, most usually a desire to reduce my credibility.

The post that was quoted here has been removedNot being a Jew, Muslim, or Christian, to me Commandments 1, 2, 3, and 4 are meaningless and I obviously do not subscribe to them. Commandment 5 needs to be on a case-by-case basis: there are a lot of dishonorable fathers and mothers out there who make nonsense of the notion of deserving automatic respect. I endorse Commandments 7, 8, and 9. I think Commandment 10 is surplus to requirements: I don't think "coveting" something is a problem as long as it doesn't lead to breaking Commandment 8. Jesus's teachings and the 10 commandments are not one in the same.
