I want to compile a new set of commandments, or rules for all to live by, suitable for the world as it is today. Any thoughts? I don't need to stop at 10 if they're valid..
so some ideas...
- look at and respect others as you would have them see you
- the right to criticise ideas not people
- love your god, but accept others may not
- bring children into this world, not into your faith. They may join your faith when they're old enough to choose.
- a multifaith world needs a secular arbiter
- violence is the LAST resort.
- your neighbour doesn't need to be your friend, but more importantly doesn't need to be put in the handcuffs of your beliefs !
