    Did they ever read the ten comandments? I’m not religious myself vut I think one of them says something “you shall not lie”. Maybe Republicsns should start with actually abiding to it first…

        Come on now it was those damn democrats who did all the stealing they stole the election, they still all the documents and they stole my wife and kids from me and forced them to move out of state and now I’m on the no fly list because of those damn lazy stealing democrats that control everything and made my wife divorce me and take full custody so that’s why I tried to take my country back at the insurrection protest at the Capitol building for my boy Donnie… I love you Donald Trump…

      Thou shall not kill

      … makes you wonder about a few things in American culture …

      • gun ownership, which causes deaths by people in the thousands every year (intentional and accidental and self inflicted), basically most personal firearms are meant for one thing … to kill people.
      • military industrial complex which is the vehicle and cause of mass human death around the world
      • death penalty, if your Bible says do not kill, why do you have laws that say you should kill

        Technically, as I understand it, that is a mistranslation. It should be “Thou shalt not commit murder”. Executions and killing in war are perfectly okay with the god of the Bible. It’s only *illegal *killing that you should refrain from. In fact, there are numerous places in the Bible where the readers are told to kill people in god’s name. So you can get right out there and start killing men, women, and babies with no worry that you’ll go to hell for it.

      Wait until they read the second one “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water”
