Do all religions believe in the same 10 commandments?

only religions that follow the books of Moses believe in the Ten Commandments. This is primarily Judaism and Christianity\n\nas for being the same. No they are not. They have the same words but are broken up in different ways to give different meanings\n\nexamples http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_commandments#Division_and_interpretation

Jewish understanding of the ten commandments\n\nSignificance of the decalogue\nAccording the Jewish understandings, the Torah includes 613 commandments, of which those listed in the decalogue count for ten. Most authorities thus do not automatically ascribe to these ten commandments any greater significance in observance, or any special status, as compared to the remainder of the canon of Jewish law. Indeed, when undue emphasis was being placed on them, daily communal recitation of them was discontinued (Talmud, tractate Berachot 12a). The Jewish tradition does, however, recognize these "ten commandments" as the ideological basis for the rest of the commandments; a number of works (starting with Rabbi Saadia Gaon) have made groupings of the commandments according to their links with the Ten Commandments.\n\nTraditional Jewish belief is that these commandments, among the 613, apply solely to the Jewish people, and that the laws incumbent on the rest of humanity are outlined in the seven Noahide Laws. In the era of the Sanhedrin, transgressing any one of these theoretically carried the death penalty; though this was rarely enforced due to a large number of stringent evidentiary requirements imposed by the oral law.\n\nDivision and interpretation\n\n"I am the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt..." \nThis commandment is to believe in the existence of God, that God exists for all time, that God is the sole creator of all that exists, that God determines the course of events in this world. \n"You shall have no other gods besides Me... Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..." \nOne is required to believe in God and God alone. This prohibits belief in or worship of any additional deities, gods, spirits or incarnations. To deny the uniqueness of God, is to deny all that is written in the Torah. It is also a prohibition against making or possessing objects that one or other may bow down to or serve, including any artistic representations of God or symbols thereof, including crucifixes, or any sulpture of a human being. One must not bow down to or serve any being or object but God. \n"You shalt not swear falsely by the name of the Lord..." \nThis commandment is to never take the name of God in a vain oath. This includes four types of prohibited oaths: an oath affirming as true a matter one knows to be false, an oath that affirms the patently obvious, an oath denying the truth of a matter one knows to be true, and an oath to perform an act that is beyond one's capabilities. \n"Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy" \nOne is to declare of the greatness and the holiness of the Sabbath, and observe each Sabbath day, as God defined for the Jews during the Exodus. Each day of the Exodus, God provided food to the Jews to collect except on the Sabbath. Instead a double portion was provided the day before the Sabbath. One is enjoined from performing work on the Sabbath. One may not change the day of the Sabbath. \n"Honor your father and your mother..." \nThe obligation to honor one's parents is an obligation that one owes to God and fulfills this obligation through one's actions towards one's parents. This commandment is an interesting development when compared to other laws of the Ancient East (for instance, the Code of Hammurabi) that do not call for equal respect of the father and the mother. Jewish sages note that the 5th commandment, on the border between commandments on relationship with God and those between humankind, is to "Honor your father and your mother...", and draw lessons from this that a person should respect parents (and by implication, elders) only somewhat less than one would God himself, and that parents should be moral guidance to a person as God is to society. \n"You shall not murder" \nThe Hebrew word ratsach, used in this commandment, is close to the word murder; k

Yes. If we live all with the same beliefs.

yes, the 8 fold path is much more profound in my view as well.  all of the 10 commandments could be contained in just a few of the 8 guidelines.  right action and right view would probably cover those 10.  to me, there's something much more attractive about a suggestion than a command.

how about the 10 commandments?\n\nExo 20:2  [#1]  I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. \n\nExo 20:3  Thou shalt have no other gods before me. \n\nExo 20:4  [#2]  Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. \n\nExo 20:5  Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; \n\nExo 20:6  And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. \n\nExo 20:7  [#3]  Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. \n\nExo 20:8  [#4]  Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. \n\nExo 20:9  Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: \n\nExo 20:10  But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: \n\nExo 20:11  For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. \n\n[Note:  The "sabbath day" being referred to here is the Hebrew/Israel/Jewish sabbath day [the seventh (7th) day of the week, Saturday], that begins Friday at sundown, and continues until Saturday at sundown.] \n\nExo 20:12  [#5]  Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. \n\nExo 20:13  [#6]  Thou shalt not kill. \n\nExo 20:14  [#7]  Thou shalt not commit adultery. \n\nExo 20:15  [#8]  Thou shalt not steal. \n\nExo 20:16  [#9]  Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. \n\nExo 20:17  [#10]  Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's. \n\nExo 20:18  And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off. \n\nExo 20:19  And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die. \n\nExo 20:20  And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not. \n\nExo 20:21  And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was. \n\n~ Idols and Altars \n\nExo 20:22  And the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven. \n\nExo 20:23  Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold. \n\nExo 20:24  An altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places where I record my name I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee. \n\nExo 20:25  And if thou wilt make me an altar of stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stone: for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it. \n\nExo 20:26  Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness be not discovered thereon.

Right. They all worship the One True God, written and spelled differently in Aramaic and in Arabic. All monotheistic religions are basically one and the same.

Indeed.\n\nI've often though this. For example, the 10 commandments would be pretty impressive if Columbus stepped ashore in the Caribbean for the first time to discover that the native inhabitants had been given by god the exact same 10 commandments in the same order. \nTHAT would be pretty impressive. But no instead he chose to only tell one (probably schizophrenic) man on top of a mountain somewhere in Israel.

yes of course they do.all three religions lead to the same god.and for those ignorant people out there...ALLAH means god in the arabic language... christians also call god allah...its god in english ..allah in arabic.

There is no one true religion.  I'm sure because there are so many religions that teach the same principles.  I'm right because I'm open minded, and think other people have the right to believe what they want to believe.

The ten commandments.

No.\n\nFor Christians, Jesus fulfilled the Law of Moses.\n\nChristians are not held to the ceremonial parts of the Mosaic Law concerning of dietary purity and temple worship.\n\nChristians are held to the moral law of God, some of which is expressed in the Ten Commandments.\n\nHowever Jesus took the Ten Commandments to the next step summarizing them into the two Great Commandments:\n+ You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.\n+ You shall love your neighbor as yourself.\n\nAnd teaching things like\n+ Everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart.\n+ Everyone is our neighbor including our enemies.\n\nTherefore we have to go much farther than the original recipients of the Ten Commandments ever dreamed.\n\nWith love in Christ.

The following is the text of the commonly accepted (by Christian and Jewish authorities) commandments as found in the book of Exodus:\n\n    "God spoke all these words, saying: I am God your Lord, who brought you out of Egypt, from the place of slavery. Do not have any other gods before Me. Do not represent [such] gods by any carved statue or picture of anything in the heaven above, on the earth below, or in the water below the land. Do not bow down to [such gods] or worship them. I am God your Lord, a God who demands exclusive worship. Where My enemies are concerned, I keep in mind the sin of the fathers for [their] descendants, to the third and fourth [generation]. But for those who love Me and keep My commandments, I show love for thousands [of generations]. Do not take the name of God your Lord in vain. God will not allow the one who takes His name in vain to go unpunished. Remember the Sabbath to keep it holy. You can work during the six weekdays and do all your tasks. But the seventh day is a Sabbath to God your Lord. Do not do anything that constitutes work. [This includes] you, your son, your daughter, your slave, your maid, your animal, and the foreigner in your gates. It was during the six weekdays that God made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. God therefore blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. Honor your father and mother. You will then live long on the land that God your Lord is giving you. Do not commit murder. Do not commit adultery. Do not steal. Do not testify as a false witness against your neighbor. Do not be envious of your neighbor's house. Do not be envious of your neighbor's wife, his slave, his maid, his ox, his donkey, or anything else that is your neighbor's." (Exodus 20)\n\nHere's a basic listing:\n\n1. You shall not worship any other god but me.\n\n2. You shall not make a graven image.\n\n3. You shall not take the name of God in vain.\n\n4. You shall not break the Sabbath.\n\n5. You shall not dishonor your parents.\n\n6. You shall not murder.\n\n7. You shall not commit adultery\n\n8. You shall not steal.\n\n9. You shall not commit perjury.\n\n10. You shall not covet.

There are actually three versions of the Ten Commandments, Jewish, Catholic (and Lutheran), and Protestant taken from Exodus Chapter 20:1-17 and Deuteronomy Chapter 5:6-21.\n\nWith the new revelations of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit in the early Catholic Church, a slightly different emphasis was placed on different commandments.\n\nThen 1500 years later, the Protestant in objecting to certain Catholic practices, once again changed the emphasis of the Ten Commandments.\n\n+ Jewish Ten Commandments (before 1000 BC)\n\n1.

Muslims actually follow the 10 commandments better than Christians... here is an excerpt from the 10 commandments\nThen God spoke all these words: 2I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; 3you shall have no other gods before me. 4You shall not make for yourself an image, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me, \n\nsee the part #4 about not having any graven images?.. why do christians ignore this command? are they better?
