I am paraphrasing Christopher Hitchens who was on CBC radio today.

Ahah!! There are other gods.ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.'
No art? How tedious.TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'
This one and the first two display a distinct insecurity on the part of the issuer. Considering, this god is supposed to be omnipotent, all I can say is "go figger".THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.'
This one and the first 3 have exactly what to do with morality?FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.'
... unless he/she/both are homidical maniacs, hopelessly addicted to booze or drugs, abusive, etc. And nothing mentioned about abusing kids either. Nothing to potect them.FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.'
.... unless it's because god said to. lmao Most societies kind of frown on lying, killing, and stealing anyway.SIX: 'You shall not murder.'
This is pretty cool, I suppose.SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery.'
See above for comments.EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.'
Ditto.NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.'
Here we have a big problem, too. What is coveting? Isn't it just the thought that one gets when the neighbor gets an awesome lawnmower? Does anyone else see a problem with thought control?TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.'
