It's pretty cool that christians have their own set of rules. It's a shame atheists and agnostics don't. Trouble is there's no god to write them...
Hmmmm...
So lets have a go. Lets see if we can write our own 10 atheist commandments. Okay, now they have to be positive and help create a better society. They also they have to contain the word "thou" cos that makes them seem more important.
So let's see your contributions...

I had a rather deep, yet interesting conversation with a good friend of mine over the Festivities. She was raised as a "Christian" but now can't be sure of what she really believes in and says that she now feels more agnostic. I, personally, can't make my mind up whether I'm agnostic or atheist (not that it matters much for this).

We decided (in our partly drunken wisdom) that rules of basic right and wrong should apply (otherwise anarchy would surely ensue). Therefore, the main rule has got to be:

Thou shalt determine what is really moral by trusting your own mind. Thou shalt not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every "opinion" now accepted was once eccentric. Thou shalt only show respect to those who have earned the right to be respected Always be POLITE, so that people know that you've been brought up well!!! Edited 18 Jan 09, 6:59 PM by foot7lave |
