1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me. [comedic or otherwise]
2. Thou shalt not make yourself a graven image or any likeness or image . . .
that you should bow down to them or serve them because I am a jealous God.
3. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain; [your nose is
sovereign]
for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
4. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. [work six, rest one]
5. Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land
which the Lord your God gives you [and build toilets because your father and
mother taught you how to use reason and logic]. Thereby:
a. Thou shalt not kill. [when you end a life in cold blood]
b. Thou shalt not commit adultery. [when the father and mother don't
practice what they teach]
c. Thou shalt not steal. [when your father and mother cannot feed you]
d. Thou shalt not bear false witness against your neighbor. [when your
neighbor does nothing wrong to you, these exclusions do not apply]
e. Thou shalt not covet [that which is rightfully] your neighbor's.
f. Thou shalt not make gods of silver to be with me, nor shall you make
for yourselves gods of gold. [unless you feel like it, and they please you,
and you admit they're not God, as heretofore expressed and described in
statement 2]
g. Indentured servitude ain't all that bad, if it's for six years only.
[and an option is given for the seventh and successive]
h. Conditions for killing, slavery, and other community acts listed
below

What if you're not Christian or Jewish? The one law, written by me in 2002
supercedes Moses' law, is shorter, and much more elegant.
