INISKWELA Episode 9 – The Social Utility of the Ten-Commandments (Part 2)

For this episode of INISKWELA, I am continuing to give a case for the social utility of the Ten-Commandments. I make the argument that the Ten Commandments reflect the core of the moral standard that's needed for a just and well-functioning society of human beings. Ibig sabihin nito, 'di kailangan (at 'di dapat) na maging WOKE ang isang Kristiyano para masabing nakapag-aambag siya sa ikakabuti ng lipunan. The Christian's social contribution is in his or her conformity to the Ten-Commandments as perfectly embodied by Jesus Christ, the moral standard of highest social utility. Huntahan!
