The Ten Commandments?

Published on Tuesday 30 September 2003

1.  I am the Lord thy God; thou shouldst consider me relatively important.

2.  Thou shouldst not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain, unless thou art really ticked off and can't think of another way to let off steam.

3.  Once in a great while thou shouldst take a break and listen to what I have to say - not that thou necessarily hast to take my advice, though.

4.  Honour thy father and thy mother, except when thou art blaming them for thine own dysfunction.

5.  Thou shouldst not kill; neither shouldst thou consider it necessary to go out of thy way to help people in need.

6.  Thou shouldst not commit adultery, unless thou canst call it "serial monogamy."

7.  Thou shouldst not steal in such a way as to get caught.

8.  Thou shouldst not bear false witness against thy neighbour, except as a way to avoid dealing with thine own issues.

9.  Thou shouldst not covet thy neighbour's possessions, unless they really will help thee find personal fulfillment.

10.  Thou shouldst not covet thy neighbor's spouse without provocation.
