    3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

    Including presidents or celebrity idols or money.

    4 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 under the earth.

    CPAC anyone? Flag pins? Pins depicting the president? Crucifixes? Garden statues? Saint statues?

    5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

    Oooh, like… Presidents?

    6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

    7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

    Here come the recordings

    8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

    9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

    10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

    11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

    Solo, I guess businesses need to close on weekends, then, to accommodate the Abramic faiths.

    12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

    Honor. Not worship, not accept abuse

    13 Thou shalt not kill.

    Whooo-doggie. Kashoggi?

    14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.

    Oh boy. More single parents, including those who married for money and power. Hello, Aunt Lydia.

    15 Thou shalt not steal.

    Here come a lot more wealthy single parents.

    16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

    Looks like Texas will be getting special elections.

    17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.

    Well so much for Karens, man-children and plain children raised in the era of capitalism and keeping up with the Joneses.
