Dave: I agree with you on the money & power issues. I disagree on codifying the 10 commandments into law. Prohibitions against killing and stealing are already covered by law. I would not want the law punishing someone for adultery, not honoring their parents or for coveting other idols or gods. Those are religious commandments and not every religion agrees with the Christian version. I don't belittle anyone's religion. I just don't want their particular version forced on me. I wouldn't want the Koran forced on me either. I believe that one can be moral, honest and good without religion; it is a matter of choice. Many religious people can do very bad things.

I agree with you about the donkey/human love, but not on religoius grounds. The donkey does not have a choice so that kind of relationship would be animal abuse. It is the same with children, they often don't have the capability or they are not in circumstances where they can choose - so a carnal relationship with them is illegal. Same gender consenting adults are different; they have free will.
