Commandments

We know there are 10 commandments. But do we really? Exodus 20:2-17; Deuteronomy 5:6-21 In RCIA, we learned the 10 are (quoting Dt,GNB) Worship no god but me. Do not use my name for evil purposes. Observe the Sabbath and keep it holy. Respect your father and your mother. Do not commit murder. Do not commit adultery. Do not steal. Do not accuse anyone falsely. Do not desire another man's wife .. do not desire his house ++ It seems like the Teachers are conveniently missing out Dt 5:8-9 ( Do not make for yourselves images of anything in heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth )  Stepping into any Catholic Church, you'll be welcomed by statues of Mother Mary, Jesus Christ and always the Crucifix hung right in the middle of the hall.

Mom keeps a small pot of soup burning. we can "burn" him phones but he can't use it because of hyperinflation in the underworld. We can communicate with them through fires (Jinns). We can also communicate through technology but it's extremely expensive for them to open our files.. so please stop sending daily pictures! This motivates me to do a PhD in Economics and focus on the underworld currency problem (bitcoin?).

 3 When a young woman still living in her father's house makes a vow to give something to the Lord or promises to abstain from something, 4 she must do everything that she vowed or promised unless her father raises an objection when he hears about it. 5 But if her father forbids her to fulfill the vow when he hears about it, she is not required to keep it. The Lord will forgive her, because her father refused to let her keep it.
