The Three Commandments...
Get Some Real Religion!!
My neighbor, Buffy!
I don’t know who the next US president will be..but Huckabee or Obama would be a nice change..Huck wants more art and music in school, compassionate immigration reform, and wants to abolish the IRS…Obama wants to end the occupation of Irag and FREE THE TROOPS!
Now, Huckabee says we got too many laws in the USA because we don’t act right. If we followed the TEN COMMANDMENTS, we would be better off.. that sounds pretty reasonable. So I picked up my bible to check these commandments out and here’s what I found….
It looks like I got two choices.. in Matthew 22, Jesus says we only need two commandments: love the lord with all your heart; and love your neighbor as yourself.
In Exodus 20; God gave the TEN commandments. Seems Jesus and God were at odds how many we really need. I read God’s commandments and some of them don’t make a lick of sense: thou shalt not covet your neighbor’s ass or ox..my neighbor doesn’t have an ox, but she’s got a nice ass! Other commandments are simply to bolster God’s inferiority complex…love only me, I am a jealous god, etc.. so I can’t support those. Don’t kill and don’t steal..those are good. So it comes down to a compromise…we should all follow the three commandments:
- don’t kill
- don’t steal
- love yourself and your neighbor
If you take my advice, we’ll have a better world and I’ll still get to do unto my neighbor!
