"What the World Needs Now...."

It seems to me what the world needs is a kind of ecumenical version of a continental congress, where we can make ammendments to the list of universal sins. I mean, if you count everything that every religion in the world considers a sin there's probably thousands of them. I think if we tried real hard we might pare it down to just four or five hard core sins. If everyone agreed to really really obey them rather than just treat them like suggestions instead of orders the way people ignore yellow warning lights, the world would be a better place. "Thou shalt not kill" is a keeper, but let's knock off anything about coveting thy neighbor's ox.
