wow this was pretty awesome - as an seventh day adventist, my church has a pretty solid history of using the commandments a lot, especially in a legalistic way. its changing and evolving now, and the younger generations are stading up to the past ickiness.. its great! so yeah i agree with this perspective - i think its really thoughtful and yeah, im with you here ! great info

As you were talking about the 10 Commandments as a totem, I thought of the story in the OT where the Israelites take the Ark of the Covenant into battle thinking that would give them victory...but they lost because they were putting their faith in the Ark rather than God. Even though the Ark was from God, that in itself did not guarantee victory. I also loved the point about how it's damaging to look at the 10 Commandments removed from the context of redemption...that is so true! Why would the 10 Commandments be the one section of scripture that Christians want people to see? Seems like they're missing the point.
