I came across this the other day "The Witch's 10 Commandments" by Marian Singer. They are:
 
1. Thou art God/dess
 2. As above, so below; as within, so without
 3. Spirit abides in all things; words & names have meaning
 4. Maintain an attitude of gratitude (walk the talk)
 5. Honor the ancestors, teachers, elders, and leaders
 6. All life is scared
 7. All acts of love & pleasure are sacred
 8. Whatever you send out returns threefold
 9. Love is the law, love under will
 10. For the greatest good an'it harm none

 If I remember right she wrote a book comparing these to the Christian 10 Commandments.Has anyone read it?
I was wondering what people think of them.
 
Also I am a little confused by the "love under will" part.

 
I like the idea of writing out your personal values and beliefs. It turns an idea into something more tangible, where you can reaffirm yourself daily of it. I have a sticker on my mirror that says,"I believe in myself" and looking at the words physically makes it more powerful to me.

I certainly don't think all people should be obligated to follow a list of "rules" but I think the list would be agreeable to many people,and they could use it in their own practice without feeling forced. We all have our own opinions on morality, and we must do what feels right for us.

My friend actually gave me this book last week. I haven't read any of it yet, but from what I can see there are neat exercises in it to help you spiritually.
I do agree with a lot of these commandments, really.

I also agree with Miss, saying that we shouldn't have to follow a list of rules.

I look at them as guidelines. And if you don't believe in some, so be it. That's okay! I just try to be a good person.
