OK Bear,
 
You asked, I showed you where it was written. You believe whatever you want to believe. If I cannot convince you that Jesus said to love thy neighbor, not beat him, so be it. It makes no difference to me as slavery no longer exists and you are not being rational or able to look at the big picture. You just want to take little pieces of the Bible, take them out of context, distort their meaning in order to try and discredit the book and religion. You will not be successful, but you are welcome waste your time trying. 
 
Best Regards,
 
Donovan

Donovan,

YOU are wrong! NONE of the TEN COMMANDMENTS say that. 

The discussion was in regards to the TEN COMMANDMENTS. Matthew 22:34-40 does NOT list 
the Ten Commandments as they are known to all of the world and those that read the bible, 
except YOU of course.  

First, Matthew 22:34-40 is not  a listing of the Ten Commandments, the lists known as the
Ten 
Commandments are given in passages in two books of the Bible: Exodus 20:2�17, Exodus 
34:11�27 and Deuteronomy 5:6�21.

Second, depending on which religion/denomination (Jewish, 
Anglican,Reformed,Orthodox,Catholic, Lutheran or other Christian, the Second Commandment  
regards the following: You shall have no other gods before me; or, You shall not make for 
yourself an idol; or, You shall not make wrongful use of the name of your God. No where in
any 
list of the TEN COMMANDMENTS is there a "cliff note version"  that reduces the Ten 
Commandments down to two!    

Have a nice day
