I'll ask again, do you think the ten commandments should be enforced by government?

I didn't realize you had asked me that the first time. Keeping in mind that the 10 Commandments were addressed to Israel, I personally believe that they are instructive in that the priciples of the 2nd Table of the law can be thought of as applicable to the civil magistrate. The first Table deals with one's relationship to God, and so is not under the purview of civil Government. That's my two cents, for what it's worth.

Cordially,

The first five are certainly concerned with morals of the first order.

So I guess there are important things of a moral nature that should not be enforced by government.

It seems that in this, the most important of all moral issues, speeding is a moral that government need be involved in, but not the first five commandments.

An interesting position.
