The Ten Commandments of Political Correctness

Sheryl Young
The Original Ten Commandments can be found in The Bible, Exodus chapter 20. Abandon those immediately, as they are politically incorrect. Here are the new Ten Commandments of Political Correctness.

1. I am your god, Political Correctness. You shall have no other gods before me. I am bringing you out of hearing distance from the religious free speech of those Bible fanatics.

2. You shall not make any public statues of any other gods besides Political Correctness, especially the Cross of Christ. Heaven forbid (excuse the expression) that your children should follow those other Ten Commandments. They might learn to obey them.

3. Take the name of the Lord God in vain as often and in as many vulgar ways as you want. If people are offended, they can leave the room. Of course, if something they say offends you, you can take them to court.

4. Don't keep the Sabbath day holy. At all costs, do not attend church. All the hypocrites will be there.

5. Don't honor your father or your mother...what do they know? They're just old-fashioned people who want to force their religious beliefs on you. Or maybe they abused you with their gentle, loving spanking. Or maybe sometimes they told you "no," and being negative to a child is politically incorrect.

6. On the subject of "thou shalt not murder" - This takes two Politically Correct qualifications in order to avoid being a hypocrite:

a. If you are pro-life for unborn innocent babies, you cannot be in favor of capitol punishment for convicted murderers, even when DNA proves their guilt. That would be hypocritical.

b. And if you're pro-life for unborn innocent babies, but you approve of our soldiers killing our enemies, you're an even bigger hypocrite.

7. Go ahead and commit adultery. Do whatever feels good.

8. You shall not steal except from those richer than you...they owe you.

9. You can lie and bear false witness. There is no absolute truth, or right or wrong, or good or bad. Besides, the means justifies the end.

10. Covet your neighbor's stuff. You're entitled to it. It's a "give me" society.

    sorry typing error below, I meant to write, we wouldn't have the need to have a jail.

    If only people will obey God's Commandments, we wouldn't have a new to have a jail.
    There will be no murder, no one killed, no stealing, people living and walking safe,
    no adultery, no broken families, people will say the truth, etc. What a benefit this land will have if only they will obey the ten Commandments, but fools and crooked people want to remove it to calm their concious.

    This is heartbreaking, sad but true! I don't think liberals have very much to live for, as surly this is the creed they adhere to.
