The 10 Comapments

Today is Shavuot, which marks the giving of the 10 commandments to Moses (photo) and his homies.

To celebrate this occasion there we will be cheesecake for morning tea. Why cheesecake?

And to demonstrate that Shavout is not just about artery hardening goodies I have constructed a comparison chart of the original 10 commandments and a respected modern interpretation.

	The Ten Commandments	The Ten Comapments
Given to	Moses	Dan
By	God	Some dude
On	Stone tablets	A slightly soiled napkin
Where	Atop Mt Sinai	Outside a small cafe in Carlton
1	I am the Lord your God who brought you out of slavery in Egypt.	I am RationaleTM your mapping tool who freed you from the bonds of confusion.
2	You shall have no other gods but me.	You shall have no other mapping software but me*.
3	You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.	You shall not omit the little TM symbol.
4	You shall remember and keep the Sabbath day holy.	You shall have a nice break between mapping exercises.
5	Honor your father and mother.	Pay your subscription / buy the upgrades.
6	You shall not murder.	You shall not own a Mac.
7	You shall not commit adultery.	You shall follow the Holding Hands rule, but that's all!
8	You shall not steal.	You shall use many sources, and give references.
9	You shall not bear false witness against thy neighbour.	You shall not construct defamatory example maps about your colleagues.
10	You shall not covet.	You shall not ask for too many new features at once.

*And bCisive.
