What are y'all doing for "Ten Commandments Weekend" in May?
Resolved, That the Senate--

(1) recognizes the first weekend of May 2008 as `Ten Commandments Weekend';

(2) celebrates the Ten Commandments as a significant aspect of the national life of the United States; and

(3) encourages citizens of the United States to reflect on the integral role that the Ten Commandments have played in the life of the Nation.

May 3&4

I don't know about you, but I think I'll post some crazy crap on the Rapture Ready board!

1. I'm having my annual Kentucky Derby party
Gambling and alcohol - I can't think of a finer way to contemplate the 10 Commandments.

4. Jezus, I thought you meant the movie
we used to have a party every time ABC would screen "The Ten Commandments" with Charleton Heston (that's funny, he doesn't look Jewish).....It is a true camp fest.

Two adulterous blowjobs

33. Are you going to covet your neighbor's ass instead?
I mean, since he doesn't have any slaves to covet, you're down to "wife" and "ass."

31. That's hilarious! This country is so far from REALLY giving a shit about them, it's sick.
No other gods before God? Well, that's out - our military is our god. And if not the military, it's money and personal freedom.

No false idols? What about Reagan, what about money, military, the Bible?

Honor the Sabbath? Yeah, that's RIGHT fucking out.

Don't take the Lord's name in vain? Happens every time someone swears in on a Bible or says the Pledge of Allegiance or comes up with idiot ass legislation to put the Ten Commandments everywhere. Putting "In God We Trust" on our money when we don't mean it, and putting "Under God" in the pledge when we don't mean it is also doing so. (to say nothing of the apostasy of even saying the Pledge of Allegiance to begin with).

Don't murder? Our government does plenty of that.

Don't steal? HA HA HA!! That's a good one. No, we don't follow that.

Don't covet? Hello, Iraq oil? Central American minerals? Appalachian coal? Diamonds? Copper? Gold?

Don't bear false witness? Hello, Republican party. And especially our current administration, that loves to lie about foreign countries and about half of the American population.

Don't commit adultery? Bwuhahahaha! If we have, supposedly, a special relationship with God, then we're committing adultery every time we rely on the military, every time we rely on our money or power, and every time we make deals with known terrorists in order to further our own goals (Reagan and Bush First were good at that one).

Honor your mother and father? Well, okay, I don't know how to do that one - though perhaps it could be the rightwing lies about our forefathers, claiming that they were all Super Christians who wanted a Super Christian nation and that they all thought that eliminating our freedoms in the sake of safety was perfectly sound and appropriate, and that shredding the Constitution is a good way to honor their vision.

I will probably barbecue, so that I can make a pleasing offering to THE LORD of a small animal sacrifice.
