People keep talking about the 11th commandment

A term steeped in Christian Privilege.

Well, I found it, and it's much like the first three commandments:

"Thou shall not attempt discussion with the faithful"


That fits perfectly with how it's used.

There is another version floating around, but I have it on good authority that its false.

But how could non-theists have Commandments? A clearly Biblical reference.

Completely devoid of content. It's amazing how someone can make so many posts and never say anything of substance. I do applaud your efforts in trying.

If so, what will be the punishment?

As punishment, I would recommend listening to Trump speak for 3 minutes.
