What about a Goddess, or Gods, or Goddesses, or both Gods and
Goddesses? Would that be ok?

I'd like to see you believe you can fly by flapping your arms and see
you demonstrate the reality of it by stepping out the window on 55th
floor. Please sign a disclaimer freeing me of all blame and/or

You obviously don't follow rule nr.1. If you had faith in yourself,
you'd have faith you'd be able to find a job you actually like.

Deeeeeep.

Are you projecting here?

Try actually reading and understanding the Ten Commandments before
making this sort of statements. You should be able to see then that
this statement is silly. For example, putting no other gods before God
does not make you a better person, even more so when you don't
actually believe in the Bible.

One word: Sisyphus.

Same as 9.

Murder with moderation is ok? Would that be murdering someone just a
little bit or murdering only a few people?

Deeeeep again.

Yeah, if you, in accordance with nr.3, spend your days working a job
you don't like, you will feel this way. You really should try to get
another job.

Uhm, but didn't you say in nr.1 you had faith? My guess is your afraid
to quit your job above all.
