what is there to feel traped about, i understand that there are alot of rules but they are put in place not to just restrict us but to protect us.
1) "Thou shalt have no other gods before me."
easy enouph, dont worship gods that dont exist.
2) "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image,"

would you like your name to be used when some see's, here's or does something bad. for examble a man see's a dead dog slaughtered on the side of the road and says "Jessica banks." and Jessica banks i passing by right at that moment, i imagine that it would upset her.
4) "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy."
the sabbath day... is the day the earth was made. in short "celebrate the earths birthday." saturday is the sabbath day i imagine you arent upset about not having to go to school or anything.
5) "Honor thy father and thy mother:"
honor them because they gave birth to you...not hard
6) "Thou shalt not kill."
dont take away someones god given existence. no one has the right to do that
7) "Thou shalt not commit adultery"
dont cheat on your wife or husband...if your going to dont get married
dont have a relationship with someones spouse...it would cause alot of problems
cool "Thou shalt not steal."
dont take someone elses things they arent yours
9) "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor."
in short dont lie, dont tell a false hood if you dont know if something is true for sure then dont say anything about it.
10) "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house,.....nor anything that is thy neighbor's
dont envy someone else for what they have...envy leads to you doing something bad to get it.
these are the things god wants us to do...this has nothing to do with feeling free and being ourselves...doing these things doesnt make up who we are. who would want to do these things in the first place.
