How to explain the Ten Commandments to the "children" in Hillary's secular VILLAGE

FARMERS UNDERSTAND, intuitively, the concept of "what you sow is what you get." Hillary Clinton grew up in a "blue" metropolis far from the farms fields of Arkansas. Her book, "It Takes a Village to Raise a Child" is about the government, not the parents, deciding what to teach your children.

God was banned from the schools, and then the Ten Commandments were banned from the courthouse. Most urban children have never heard of sin or the Big Ten, or what's the big deal. The only modern sin is mentioning sin, but many people have said in many ways, "Sin is not hurtful because it is forbidden; it is verboten because it is harmful." For example:

You shall have NO other Gods except the God of the children of Israel; 24/7 screen time is way too much. Open a book.

You shall make NO pagan images; paganism and pornographic art and pictures rob children of childhood. Without innocence in childhood, people have problems in adulthood.

You shall NOT take the name of the Lord in vain, nor casually! All of His names are holy. Swear not at all.

REMEMBER the Sabbath day, and, keep it holy. Don't "forget about it"!

Honor your mother and your father by listening to their advice; they learned great lessons from their mistakes.

Do not commit murder; what goes around comes around.

Do not ever commit adultery. Leave the ho alone!

Thou shalt not steal; the store will just close down if it is overcome by shoplifting.

Do not bear false witness. That means lying, dude.

YOU shall not lust after ANYTHING that belongs to your neighbors (you know, like the rest of the people in your Village).

P.S. People are talking a lot about forgiveness and the Resurrection this time of year, but let's not forget what caused Christ's death: SIN.

PPS: Religion isn't just about salvation for the next life. It's also about a more abundant life in this life!
