The Ten Commandments are a set of rules given to us in the Bible that tell us how to live a good and moral life. Alternatives to the Ten Commandments are different sets of guidelines or ideas that people can use to help them live a good and moral life. For example, many people might think of being kind to others, being honest, and treating everyone with respect as important parts of a good and moral life. Others might include being loyal, helpful, generous, and doing their best to be a good example for others.
