Five Commandments (for God)

[jake-the-peg]

1/ Do not allow evil in the world to go unpunished

2/ Do not allow the innocent to suffer

3/ Do not give man free will and then set out to test him

4/ Do not give certain people particular sexual orientations and then condem them for them

5/ Do not allow your churchmen to acquire riches whilst the poor go hungry (or is that 2)

Do we need 10 or will those do?

Apologies to Annna

Immitation is the most sincere compliment though

[WaldoMcFroog]

How about "Provide some sort of credible proof You exist if You expect people to do what You say"?

[jno]

do not tell one race you've chosen them.

[mibn2cweus]

Thou shalt not punish children grand-children and great grand children for the actions of their ancestors.

Thou shalt not randomly devastate and destroy peoples lives with floods, famine, earthquakes and tornados just for the hell of it.

That will do for telling a non-existent being what not to do.

[jake-the-peg]

Very good guys I just came up with one more.

Do not create taking snakes - it only leads to trouble

[WaldoMcFroog]

Or indeed talking donkeys.

[China Doll]

Athiest that I am Jake, I can't see how 2 and 5 are anything to do with any God. Humans are just cretins sometimes. As to 2, I quite like a good test sometimes ;0)

[naomi24]

............ or even talking new born babies.

[China Doll]

I like the talking donkey in Shrek but not as much as I like the talking cat.

[jake-the-peg]

But the innocent suffer in natural disasters too China

Acts of God you might say

[Gromit]

Thou shalt not inflict Jade Goody upon us.

[naomi24]

Oh me too, China. I love that donkey - and the cat's pretty good too. Not sure God ever produced a talking cat though. Never mind, where God fails, Hollywood comes up trumps! Good old Charlton Heston! What would the world have done without him? No Moses, No Ben Hur. Oh, yes, we would have been ignorant indeed.

[beso]

What about "Don't root the choirboys."
