14 Commandments Of The Religious Left
Elective Decisions ^ | 06/06/09 | Chris Davis

Posted on 06/06/2009 3:37:58 PM PDT by writer33

New York—On a June 29, 1994 show of Rush Limbaugh The Television Show, Rush listed the fourteen commandments of the religious left. All were hilarious, but all were so true. Below are the 14 Commandments of the Religious Left, as ranked by Rush Limbaugh and in no particular order:

Thou shalt have no other God except thyself; after all, it’s thy self-esteem that counts. If thee don’t love thee, who will?

Thou shalt not make any graven images out of any substances which cannot be recycled.

Thou shalt not take the name of liberals in criticism, including feminists, racial minorities, or any person who thinks he is a victim of America.

Remember the anniversary of Roe vs. Wade & Anita Hill’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, and keep them holy.

Honor thy mother. If she’s dysfunctional, it is thy father’s fault.

Thou shalt not kill. With these exceptions: life forms under the second trimester and those opting for medically assisted suicides.

Thou shalt not commit adultery. Unless thou aspire to high political office, use a condom, or thou cannot help it.

>>Thou shalt have no other God except thyself; after all, it’s thy self-esteem that counts.

I disagree; to the left, the self is just a vessel for the will of the state. To the extent that self-expression might undermine institutions that traditionally served as intermediaries between state and individual, self-expression is encouraged.

I can see the argument. These are just his as he put out in 1994.

That’s a nice addition. Seems to be most appropriate in the current climate. Good one, BOT.
