Love all, be honest, help those less fortunate, treat others how you'd like to be treated, don't discriminate, pick up those who have fallen, don't kick cats, etc.

Pretty easy actually.

Nah, there's exceptions. Someone murders a friend or family member? I kill them. I'm still in the club. It's called the Dexter clause.

That's just the thing. Being a decent human being is usually not at all difficult, if you actually care. I don't see why Yahwei has to come into the picture.

Also, there are a few moral teachings in the bible, but there's exponentially more hateful bull****.
