The 10 Laws of Morality (Religion Revisited pt.1)

1-Do not Rape, even if you feel it's consensual. If she/he says no and isn't acting flirtatious or in the mood for sex, she/he likely doesn't want to have sex.

2- Do not lie. Unless it is minor or doesn't hurt the feelings of others, don't do it. It is wrong and always has been/will be.

3- Do not kill. Unless it is in self defense and there was no other way to stop your attacker, never kill someone. No-matter who they are, or what they've done, a sentient being's existence should never be taken so quickly without extremely good reason.

4- Do not steal or vandalize public or private property. No one wants to have something taken from them or destroyed without a clear invitation or message. One must not do these things.

5- Do not bare false witness or claim false crimes against something or for an idea/ideal only to back it up. This goes without saying, but I'll say it anyways; Anyone who bares false witness or testimony is accusing someone of being immoral and unkind. This could extremely hurt someone and/or their reputation, therefore this act must never be done.

6- Do not abandon, verbally and/or physically abuse, or neglect your child/children. One is meant to care for their children and must never harm them. The same goes for children and respecting their parents, but where this section of the sixth moral law is important, it isn't as important.

7- Be respectful of the environment/world around you, as-well as to oneself and other animals. Treat the Earth with love and care, and do your best not to pollute the land, water, and the air which you breathe. You also mustn't treat other animals, humans and non-humans alike, with less than as much kindness as you can possibly offer them. This doesn't mean that you have to become a vegan or vegetarian, just that you must treat all animals and beings with love. I myself don't think I have the responsibility of becoming a vegan/vegetarian, most of us don't. But just try as best as you can not to harm any animals.

8- Do not commit adultery, incest, or anything of the sort. This ONLY means (in my eyes) to be in a physical relationship with another man/woman or multiple men/women or person/people who don't identify as either if you are already in an intimate relationship with another. As for incest, do not have sexual relations with someone very close to you on the family tree.

9- You cannot own slaves. This degrades and strips people of their freedom, and humiliates them in the process. This act is therefore immoral and mustn't be committed.

10- You should not, and hopefully will not judge books by their cover. This means do not discriminate against or take rights away from a certain sexuality, people who look different than you, sex, or people who hold a certain non-harmful belief, or other; just because you have had a bad experience with or have been told bad things about said groups. It is wrong and should be dealt with as such.

(11: I know there aren't 11 commandments, but I felt that I needed to add an extra one- Do not force your beliefs upon others unless your beliefs that you are trying to tell them of are on this list and they are doing something immoral; only then is it okay.)


[What do you guys think of the first part of my new series? Do you like it? This series is basically just me taking things from certain religions and... fixing it. I'm sorry if this offends any of you, but this is all in good fun. This current list is, of course, a revised version of Judaism's and Christianity's 10 commandments to fit today's standards. Do you feel like you could do could do something better? Well good! If you're up for it, I want you to put in a couple of commandments of your own in the comments! Thanks for reading guys, and PTFO!]
