And I know we’re mostly atheists here, but please keep the theological discussion to a minimum and appreciate the lighthearted hypothetical scenario for what it is.

    • Do not treat people or animals as things
    • Consent first from others, especially your family
    • The Earth and it’s creatures should be shepherded and guarded, not exploited
    • No gods, no kings, no rulers - instead have empathy, sharing, and collaboration
    • It’s round you nimrods, because that’s how gravity works

      I think the 10 commandments are in Exodus which is also one of the books where God says exactly how you should own slaves. So that would be a weird one.

    The five missing ones are:

    1. Acknowledge the central point.
    2. Thou shalt not soapbox.
    3. Thou shalt not decontextualise what others say.
    4. Thou shalt not claim intentions to defend thine or someone else’s actions.
    5. Thou shalt not convey “I disagree” through feigned lack of understanding.

    Bonus: the original version of the 8th was

    1. Thou shalt not claim with certainty things that you do not know for certain.

    The current 8th (Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour) is a forgery. Some assumer got called out over and over because of the older 8th, since he really liked to make shit up, so he restricted it into near uselessness. Source: I’m Lucifer, I know it. :^)

    The ones that make the most sense to me as stuff Moses might say.

    1. Thou shalt trust honest people, for why would one be honest if nothing comes from it

    2. Thou shalt not assume things, to assume is often more destructive than lying

    3. Thou shalt not cheat in games and anything with a justified set list of rules

    4. Thou shalt not intentionally cause mental illness, for it is equal to murder

    5. Thou shalt not gatekeep or deny another person’s rightful union

      Wow, those really sound like they could have been from the Bible (also bonuses point to you for coming up with a serious suggestion). Here, you win the Nobel prize in Prophetry*! Your basically the new Moses, and we shall follow you!

      Nobel medal


      /s (it’s sarcasm but keep the Nobel prize, you deserve it (*v*)/ []-[]¬ )

      * Prophetry is supposed to mean “being a prophet” but I just made that word up

    Thou shalt not be cruel

    Thou shalt not oppress your fellow man

    Thou shalt not put yourself before your brethren

    Thou shalt not think only of yourself

    Thou shalt not live in a disordered home, nor shall you allow the cities you live in to become disorderly due to your own lack of action
