Related: About this forumPeople keep talking about the 11th commandment
A term steeped in Christian Privilege.
Well, I found it, and it's much like the first three commandments:
"Thou shall not attempt discussion with the faithful"
That fits perfectly with how it's used.
There is another version floating around, but I have it on good authority that its false.

(42,649 posts)1. I am flattered to be your inspiration.
But how could non-theists have Commandments? A clearly Biblical reference.

guillaumeb
(42,649 posts)3. I never realized that my observation would have such an effect.
I thought it was almost too obvious to state.
Angry Dragon
(36,693 posts)6. Then state what you mean
guillaumeb
(42,649 posts)7. I did.
I stand by my previous observation.
Angry Dragon
(36,693 posts)8. I have seen no observation from you in this thread
guillaumeb
(42,649 posts)9. I was referring to my post about the 11th Commandment.
Sorry for the confusion.

(7,886 posts)11. His has been an exciting exchange
Completely devoid of content. It's amazing how someone can make so many posts and never say anything of substance. I do applaud your efforts in trying.

(7,886 posts)4. I would respond properly
but it would violate the commandment.
guillaumeb
(42,649 posts)5. Is your admittedly improper response also a violation?
If so, what will be the punishment?
As punishment, I would recommend listening to Trump speak for 3 minutes.
