IV. Remember to keep all days holy. The Lord blesses equality and respect 24/7.

VI. Thou shalt not murder.
VII. Thou shalt respect any vows given or taken.
VIII. Thou shalt not steal, nor support a corrupt system or set of beliefs which steals a person’s goods or self-respect.
IX. Thou shalt not bear false witness against your neighbor or your friend or even your enemy, no matter the benefit to yourself or if sanctioned by law.
