| THE
NEW TEN COMMANDMENTS (Humanists) |
|
THE
TEN COMMANDMENTS (God's Law) |
| Humanists
have not actually abolished the Ten Commandments. They’ve
just replaced God’s Law with their own rules: |
|
|
| 1. |
You
shall not be intolerant of other religions, beliefs
or views – except for Christianity of course. |
1.
|
I
am the Lord your God … You shall have no other
gods before Me.
Forbids: Polytheism, pantheism and atheism.
Right implied: Freedom of worship. |
| 2. |
You
shall not read the Bible or pray in government schools.
(However sex education, even in primary schools, must
become mandatory.) |
2. |
You
shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything
… you shall not bow down to them or worship them.
Forbids: Idolatry of statues, icons, pictures, people
or false religions.
Right implied: The right to know God’s will to
do it. |
| 3. |
You
may never take the names of Darwin, Marx, Mao or Mandela
in vain. (However cursing and ridiculing the names of
Jesus Christ and His followers is an essential aspect
of free speech.) |
3. |
You
shall not misuse the Name of the Lord your God for the
Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses His
Name.
Forbids: Profanity, false prophesies and blasphemy.
Right implied: Freedom of speech. |
| 4. |
Remember
to keep holy Human Rights Day, Freedom Day, Workers
Day, Women’s Day and Youth Day. (However, do be
sure to go shopping on the Lord’s Day and plan
other activities for Good Friday, Easter, Ascension
Day and . . . Xmas!). |
4.
|
Remember
the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall
labour and do all your work.
Forbids: Desecration of the Lord’s Day.
Right implied: The right to work and to rest. |
| 5. |
Honour
your Mother Earth and Father State. |
5. |
Honour
your father and your mother.
Forbids: Disrespect, dishonour and disobedience towards
our parents and any one in authority over us.
Right implied: Respect for authority. |
| 6.
|
You
shall not defend yourself against assailants and rapists
nor may you allow convicted murderers to be executed.
(However, you may kill helpless infants through abortion
and the incurable and very old people through euthanasia.
In fact don’t stop with them – once you realise
what a burden you have become to Mother Earth you may
want to request a physician assisted suicide.) |
6. |
You
shall not murder
Forbids: Murder, suicide, abortion and euthanasia.
Right implied: The right to life. |
| 7. |
You
shall not call it adultery, fornication, homosexuality
pornography or perversion. Don’t be so bigoted
and judgemental! If it feels good do it. Don’t
consider the consequences for yourself or your spouse
or children or society in general. Give free expression
to every lust and craving and call it an "alternative
lifestyle." |
7.
|
You
shall not commit adultery
Forbids: Fornication, adultery, pornography, perversion
and homosexuality.
Right implied: The sanctity of marriage. |
| 8.
|
Do
not steal because the government hates competition.
Pay all the taxes we demand from you – even if
you don’t receive any services back from the government.
If you must steal, take from the hard working middle
class bourgeois – just leave enough for us to get
our taxes out of them too. |
8.
|
You
shall not steal
Forbids: Theft, fraud, socialism, laziness and vandalism.
Right implied: Private ownership of property. |
| 9.
|
You
may not tell the truth or preach the Gospel to your
neighbour for that may offend them. You shall not offend
your neighbour or suggest that he is wrong (Unless he
is a Christian – then he deserves any abuse). |
9.
|
You
shall not give false testimony against your neighbour.
Forbids: Perjury, gossip and slander.
Right implied: The right to have one’s name protected
from slander. |
| 10. |
You
shall not think differently from what the state TV tells
you to think, for deviation from the politically correct
position is intolerable. |
10. |
You
shall not covet … anything that belongs to your
neighbour.
Forbids: Coveting, envy, greed, selfishness and socialism.
Right implied: Freedom of conscience. |
