A huge thank you to everyone who downloaded and helped publicize Telepath yesterday. The feedback has been great, and please feel free to post a video of you performing it on YouTube.
Today’s post is all about the 10 commandments. It seems to me that they are a tad out of date, especially in a technology-based society where so many people don’t believe in god. So, can we come up with some better ones? Here are the originals (I know there are different versions, but these are the best known)….
1): ‘Thou shall have no other gods other than me.‘
2): ‘Thou shall not make for yourself a carved image of me.‘
3): ‘Thow shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.‘
4): ‘Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.‘
5): ‘Thou shalt honor your father and your mother.‘
6): ‘Thou shall not murder.‘
7): ‘Thou shall not commit adultery.‘
8): ‘Thou shall not steal.‘
9): ‘Thou shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.‘
10) : ‘Thou shall not covet your neighbor’s house; nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.‘
So, it might be something more relevant to people’s lives today (‘Thou shalt not believe everything you read on Wikipedia’, ‘Thou shalt not covet your neighbor’s iphone’), very specific (‘Contestants on the X-Factor shalt not murder anything by REM’), atheist or skeptical (“Thou shalt not have any gods, including me”), or realistic (‘Thou shalt not commit adultery more than four times a year”).
Anyway, post as many or few as you like, and I will choose the best ones next week and announce the new list of 10 commandments for the 21st Century.
November 25, 2009 at 7:16 am |
1) Thou shalt not talk about Fight Club.
2) Thou shalt not talk about Fight Club.

I guess the first 3 should be replaced and the rest should just need some adjustment
1: Do not hurt other peoples believes
2: Respect all living things
3: Do not ruin the earth for the generation after you
4: Be sure to take some rest after days of hard work (I like that one)
5: Love your family
6: Don’t murder

November 25, 2009 at 7:52 am |
A few of the originals are a good idea still
Thou shalt not murder
Thou shalt not steal
Thou shalt not bear false witness (I take this to mean serious things like filing false police reports, committing perjury, falsely accusing someone of a crime, etc)
I would two into:
Thou shalt respect one’s partner (this may or may not include monogamy but should be by mutual decision)
Love thy family but remember your family are the people who stick by you regardless of biology.
For the other 6, toss them out.
November 25, 2009 at 7:56 am |
Ooops, hit submit too soon.
Toss out the other 5 and replace them with:
Thou shalt question to learn all the days of your life.
Thou shalt treat others with kindness whenever possible
Thou shalt leave the world better than you found it
Thou shalt attempt to understand those who disagree with you instead of dismissing them out of hand. If you still disagree argue your point honestly.

November 25, 2009 at 8:10 am |
The pastafarians got this right with their eight “I’d really rather you didn’t”s

I think Will Wheaton’s got this covered with Wheaton’s Law.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wil_Wheaton#Wheaton.27s_Law
All you need in one commandment.
November 25, 2009 at 8:11 am |
Oddly I was pondering this very question yesterday morning and I was struck both by the demanding nature of the commandments and their negativity. Most of them tell you not what to do instead of what you should do. There’s also too many; we struggle to remember that many and almost the first half are pandering to the egotistical demands of a mythical psudo-parent (IMHO YMMV). Anyway I came up with these seven commandments.
1. Treat others as you yourself expect to be treated.
2. Do nothing that deliberately harms another.
3. Respect and love all others, especially when they disagree with you.
4. Share what you have and resist excessive consumption.
5. Don’t confuse the map with the terrain.
6. Plan for the long term even if you will not see the fruits of your labours.
7. Covet your dreams, not material goods.
November 25, 2009 at 8:22 am |
Thou shalt not believe that everything (the environment, the world, the universe) revolves around mankind. Beware the new secular religions.
November 25, 2009 at 8:26 am |
1. Thou shall not use “thou” is it is archaic in modern speech and a bit Monty Python actually.
2. You shall honour the “school night” and will then not drink any other but nice non-alcholic drinks.
3. You shall not comfort your neighbour’s partner, or their donkey.
4. You should keep young and beautiful, but not be too vain.
5. Your children should honour their mother or father, and your other partners.
6. You shall not murmer.
7. You shall not commit yourself.
8. You shall not infringe copyright, even though this is not actually “theft” other than to the legally illiterate.
9. You shall not sue nice but principled people for libel, especially when they have the resources to fight back and so destroy your entire profession.
10. You shall not take commandments seriously, for if their only legitimacy is because it is they are commanded, there is no other reason to follow them.

Thou shalt think about that
Thou shalt not make lists longer than what is asked of you
Thou shalt thank Richard for being an incredibly nice and interesting chap to follow on Facebook and Twitter, even thou he is a pom
November 25, 2009 at 10:05 am |
Hm … there is two ways of looking upon this (pretty clear in comments) …
I think personalized commandments for each person would work best, but that is not really what it is about here … at least not when we follow the Wise Man’s examples ….
Let’s bring back celibacy …
Thou shall practice celibacy …
Thou shall pay Nopke 25 euro for each time you break this rule …
Yes, that will work ..
November 25, 2009 at 10:07 am |
thou shalt not use the word ‘thou’ unless thou knowest the correct verb form to follow.
November 25, 2009 at 10:11 am |
Van Doorn’s 3 basic laws of Humanity
1. A human may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A human must obey government orders except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A human must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
(Inspiration: Isaac Asimov’s “Three Laws of Robotics”)
November 25, 2009 at 10:14 am |
Thou shalt not be a diction dictator
November 25, 2009 at 10:19 am |

November 25, 2009 at 11:00 am |
Thou shalt not be Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobic, for it is but a number, and numbers are your friends…….

Numbers aren’t my friends. I eight them.

Tolerate thy neighbor, but do not tolerate his intolerance.
Educate thyself (with facts, not opinions).
Don’t drive like an asshole.
Be patient.
November 25, 2009 at 11:56 am |
I think “Do unto others as you would have done unto you”, no matter which book of fables it’s coded into, sums everything up nicely… I know, missing the point. Sorry oh great and wise one. And I should have twittered it, damn (no, not damn, argh I mean).
November 25, 2009 at 12:05 pm
I’m not sure I agree, mccalni.
“Do unto others as they would have you do unto them” is perhaps better.
After all, we’re not all identical in our cultures, wants and needs.
November 25, 2009 at 12:28 pm |
Thou shalt not reveal identities or addresses on the internet. Only sorrow can come of this.

November 25, 2009 at 1:29 pm |
Thou shalt not use zebra crossing as target practice
Or more formally,
Thou shalt respect the rights of pedestrians on zebra crossings.
Ok, I’m just a bit jaded as I walk to work in the centre of a city and someone tries to run me over on a zebra crossing about once a day (I tell myself they’re just jealous as I’m moving faster than they are).
I think the penalty for breaking any of the commandments should be a Rickrolling.
November 25, 2009 at 1:29 pm |
Treat others as you would like to be treated.
November 25, 2009 at 1:48 pm
I prefer, “Treat others as they would like to be treated”.
November 26, 2009 at 2:42 am
Hey andrew bro. I need someone to rub my bunions. Paint my house and then pay me because they were allowed to be in my presence.
November 26, 2009 at 10:17 am
I would do that, anonymous but I am still following my Ten Commandments, from which that bit came and as you can see above, it includes a disclaimer
“(so long as it does not go against your own personal morality)”.
I’m sure you can find someone else for whom it would be a pleasure though.
If you’d be so kind, I’d be delighted if you could not follow Jesus’s golden rule should you and I ever meet as I would positively hate to have done unto me as you would have me do unto you.
November 25, 2009 at 1:33 pm |
1) Though shalt not be an ass-hat
2) Easy now…
3) Terms and conditions subject to change.
November 25, 2009 at 1:38 pm |

Thou shall always be honest and true to the provider of thine nookie
Thou shall try real hard not to kill any one
And Thou shall keep thine religion to thy self
November 25, 2009 at 1:45 pm |
I can think of only two which I would like to see enforced with some kind nasty punishment to fit the crime.
1. You will not spam anyone, ever.
2. You will not use your cell phone in the bathroom.
November 25, 2009 at 2:30 pm |
1. Thou shalt not follow commandments.
2. See 1
November 25, 2009 at 2:30 pm |
1. Thou shalt steal underpants
2. ???
3. Profit!
November 25, 2009 at 2:37 pm |
here’s a small list: http://www.propercommandments.com/
November 25, 2009 at 2:45 pm |
According to Immanuel Kant:
“Sapere aude! Have the courage to use your mind.”
“Act only according to that maxim whereby you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law.”
“Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of any other, always at the same time as an end and never merely as a means to an end.”

How about the 10 Humanist Commandments by R. Tremblay?
http://seculardentist.blogspot.com/2009/11/ten-humanist-commandments.html
November 25, 2009 at 3:12 pm |
1.) Thou shalt not speak in fake old English!
2.) Don’t bloody listen to commandements a bloke carried from a mountain without letting you speak to the original writer!
November 25, 2009 at 3:13 pm |
Thou shalt not believe homeopathy or any other sort of witchcraft.
Thou shalt not believe anyone wearing sandals, especially with socks.
Thou shalt respect all animals, especially the cats.
Thou shalt get over the idea that McGyver was for real. I mean, it’s absurd.
Thou shalt not make fun of arachnophobics by placing big plastic spiders in the bath.
November 25, 2009 at 4:11 pm |
1. The existence of a god is an untestable theory, so you can believe in a god if you want to. But claims of miracles and divine interference are harder to defend.
2. Make no graven image that offends other people, for the cost of defending a libel action in court, or protecting yourself from the angry mob, might be too high even if you’re right.
3. Do not take the names of Popper and Darwin in vain, for Popper defined scientific truth, and by that token Darwin is scientifically true.
4. If you desire not to work on a particular day, tell your employer it’s against your religion, and he won’t be able to force you.
5. Honour your father and mother, because it’s easier to get child support payments out of them if they like you.
6. If you commit adultery, don’t be found out, and respect your lover’s right to privacy.
7. Have an abortion if you want one, because there is no objective standard that makes it murder, not even in the bible.
8. You can’t actually steal intellectual property, but infringement could land you in court.
9. Do not bear false witness, since even best-connected have been banged up for perjury.
10. Covetousness makes the world go round, and few religions have found a way of detecting and punishing it.
November 25, 2009 at 4:27 pm |
Thou shalt honour your father and step mother.
Remember the sabbath, and that big matches can also now occur on Saturday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
November 25, 2009 at 5:16 pm |
Thou shalt be better stewards of the land.
November 25, 2009 at 5:55 pm |
1: Do right; there is nothing else.
November 26, 2009 at 10:55 pm
I guess then you’ve never heard of the Hockey Pockey?
November 25, 2009 at 6:10 pm |
Though shalt put people in your company BEFORE your cell phone.
November 25, 2009 at 6:45 pm |
Thou shalt not have the Crazy Frog ring tone
November 25, 2009 at 8:21 pm
Aaargh – so true.
November 25, 2009 at 7:15 pm |

Off [this] Topic – But related to an earlier topic: The Mythbusters “paper folding” episode is being re-aired in the US on the Discovery Channel at Noon ET on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, 26 November). It is part of a Mythbusters marathon that runs from 9 AM to 3 AM.
On Topic: Thou shalt remember that failure is always an option

November 26, 2009 at 2:55 pm
Is it okay to do it on Tuesdays?
November 26, 2009 at 9:02 pm

November 26, 2009 at 4:48 pm |

A foam of boxes even

Thou must beware a Wise Man bearing apps, for he wants not but to melt your brain until you give him 59p.
November 26, 2009 at 11:29 pm |
Thou shalt remember that this life is the only one you get, and therefore, you’d best make the most of it.
Thou shalt also remember that when you’re gone, you’re gone. Make the most of what you leave behind: your body; your wealth; the memories people have of you.
Thou shalt do one’s best to leave the world a bit better than when you first found it.
Thou must remember too, that when one commitest a deed, Flickr, You Tube and other social media may comest back and remind you, and show others for the first time.
Thou should think how you would feel if you did what you do to yourself instead.
Thou shalt be happy with oneself, but still be aware of where you can improve.
Thou shalt not set expectations and standards for yourself too high, for you will always feel a failure. However, this is not an excuse for setting expectations and standards for yourself too low.
Thou shalt take everything in moderation, including moderation.
Thou shalt not be scared to question all that you see, hear and read. But do so with common sense.
Thou shalt turn it off, wait a little, then turn it on again, before asking for help.
