Maybe this is the way to teach the 10 Commandments today! Maybe then
people would "get it" and it wouldn't be construed as 'religious ed'.



Tennessee Ten Commandments

Some people in Tennessee have trouble with all those "shalls" and "shall
nots" in the Ten commandments. Folks just aren't used to talking in
those terms. So, some folks in middle Tennessee got together and
translated the "King James" into "Jackson County" language.... no joke,
read on...


The Hillbilly's Ten Commandments (posted on the wall at Cross Trails
Church in Gainesboro, < /B>TN.)


(1) Just one God
(2) Honor yer Ma & Pa
(3) No tellin' tales or gossipin'
(4) Git yourself to Sunday meetin'
(5) Put nothin' before God
(6) No foolin' around with another fellow's gal
(7) No killin'
(8) Watch yer mouth
(9) Don't take what ain't yers
(10) Don't be hankerin' for yer buddy's stuff
Now that's kinda plain an' simple, don't ya think? Y'all have a nice
day.

Plain and simple - so who needs a Bible anyway?
