You know the sins aren't really like that in the original text and I've taken to thinking this is just a collection of rules to help make a more productive second class work force.

Don't be sitting around when you could be working and don't think that just because you did the work you can claim to own it.
Don't be wanting more or better either. And if you eat to much you will forget the hunger that pushes you to keep working.
Don't fight back and be thankful for what you get and nothing else.

I mean I get it sometimes the work needs to get done but christianity feels weaponized as a stick with a single carrot that you can never get to have cause it's been made up by the people getting beaten by the stick.
I don't want to be part of the chorus that exists eternal to praise Yahweh and nothing else.

Rules? They're more a set of guidelines.
