Anyway though, there are actually 613 “commandments” (laws) in the Torah. The Christians just cherry-pick which they want to follow and which they don’t. The ones against homosexuality, for example, they promote, while laws such as this and this are commonly looked upon as outdated. They also use some verse somewhere in the new testament that proclaims that Jesus released them from the bondage of the laws of the Torah. If this is true… why even look at Torah OR the Ten Commandments?

I agree with the gist of the post as well. Free thinkers do not need absolute guidelines, no matter how well meant they are or how they seem to fit into a situation. The only guidelines we need are the unwritten golden rules and our critical thinking.
