Regarding the Jesus biscuit, if I may digress; I've heard from a celiac suffering friend of mine that gluten free communion wafers are prohibited, although apparently a 'low' gluten version is available.

Since the darn things transubstantiate anyhow, and gluten is NOT a constituent of human flesh or blood, why dafuq we need a gluten biscuit in the first place?
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Commandments not to honor any other gods. Dude, if your followers are worshiping other gods, it's a clear sign that you aren't doing enough. Especially if those gods aren't even real. If they're getting about the same, or better, results from a statue than they're getting from you, you are doing something wrong.

As an ex Muslim, these are the main ones:

-Having to use your left foot when walking into unsanitary locations (toilet ...) I still do this from time to time, even though I've been an atheist for almost two years.

-No pork. Seriously, I wonder what it tastes like...

-Thanking god whenever something bad happens, as if it was a test. Seriously how can people be so gullible? Why would god test you, if he already knows everything that ever happened/will happen?

You are wrong about that one.  Cotton/poly blend shirts are an abomination and should never be made.  It is good to insist on pure cotton.  All decent people do.  Only wicked sinners buy cotton/poly blend shirts.

It's a ethnocentric Middle Eastern Arabian religious fairy tale.  It's not supposed to make any sense to non-Arabs.

Is that what they really want?

Rules against movies, music, dancing etcetra.  I'm not the world's most entertainment oriented person, but seriously what's wrong with a little cutting loose and having fun?
