was the other “thou shalt not bear false witness”?

Sorry, but if you hated someone, that counts too.

What was the other one….not commit adultery….not steal?

The priest was walking down the street looking sad.“What happened?” asked a parishioner.“I am afraid someone from the parish stole my bike.”“Here’s what you do. Next sermon talk about the Ten Commandments and look around when you quote ‘Thou shall not steal’ and see who bows his head in shame.”Next week the priest happily rides his bike in to church.The smart parishioner said, “I see my advice worked.”“Not exactly,” said the priest. “When I reached ‘Thou shall not commit adultery,’ I remembered where I left my bike.”

If we adhered to the " Judge not, lest you be judged " maxim, there would be no comments in GoComics !

Maybe Brian should check Matthew 5 of the bible. Verse 21 and 22 says "“You have heard that the ancients were told, ‘You shall not commit murder’ and ‘Whoever commits murder shall be liable to the court.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.

Not sure I get this one. He’s saying he broke all but one, then remembers that “thou shalt not kill” is one too. Is the joke that he forgot the biggest one? Trying to guess the other one can’t be the joke.

Do others before they do you.

Pretty sure Earl has appeared in the Sunday strip, so he’s violated the one about observing the Sabbath.

I’m shocked, Earl. Shocked!!!! lol

You have to wonder about what kind of graven images he made and what other gods he worshipped.
