Every place needs 'commandments' - without any at all we are well and
truly lost.

That's a point of view that every anarchist ever disputes. Anarchists
point out that you don't need imposed rules of the `commandment' type -
especially not the typical lists of commandments.

.....and our prisons are full of people who don't follow any
commandments :)...ok! Most of us at some point will have rebelled
against imposed rules, ( commanding things doesn't necessarily mean we
have to sit back and never question them ), but I just feel that chaos
descends otherwise, with too many individuals fighting to impose their
own 'rules' - it becomes a power struggle. ( and no, I haven't always
followed the rules throughout life, but knowing that they are there
provides some kind of incentive and comfort, dare I say? )
