The one commandment

Here is a group of words I found in Sam Harris’ Letter to a Christian Nation that I think is a more useful moral guide than the Bible’s ten commandments:

“Do not injure, abuse, oppress, enslave, insult, torment, torture or kill any creature or living being.”
Nothing about graven images, honoring the sabbath or coveting your neighbors’ ass. Pretty cool, isn’t it?
