- A New and Improved Ten Commandments
A New and Improved Ten Commandments
Now that Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore's Ten Commandments monument has been removed from public view at the state courthouse in Montgomery, the Rev. Austin Miles, who heads an interdenominational ministry in Northern California, has a suggestion.
The old commandments were "not only out of order but personally oppressive for politicians. Such antiquated laws are a threat to freedom and must go."
Why not have a more politically correct version of the classic scripture, he posits.
The Rev. Miles suggests the new and improved commandments read something like this:
• Thou shalt not allow a baby of inconvenience to be born
• Thou shalt not restrict your children's choice of association
• Thou shalt not discipline your children
• Thou shalt not interfere in your child's right to view porn at the library
• Thou shalt not teach Scriptures to your children
• Thou shalt not teach children that there is a right or wrong
• Thou shalt not require applicants to the priesthood to believe in God or the Bible
• Thou shalt not defend yourselves against Muslim terrorists
• Thou shalt not demonstrate patriotism or respect for America
• Thou shalt not allow the name Jesus to be uttered
Because these new commandments would undoubtedly pass muster with ACLU, they could be posted immediately in public buildings across the country without a peep of protest.
