The atheist 10 non-commandments, part 2

The hosts finish the list: #7 treat others as you would want to be treated (Herrick calls it "Jesus theft" — plagiarizing Jesus' golden rule), with a story about a man who tells everyone he collects silver coins for Christmas; #8 responsibility to consider others including future generations (agreed); #9 there is no one right way to live (mostly agreed, with Boova noting the one right way is faith in Christ); #10 leave the world better than you found it (agreed, but "better" is subjective — illustrated with Jeremiah the weeping prophet). A tangent mocks people who accept the feeding of the 5,000 as true but quibble that the crowd simply shared food. The wrap-up: the list's core problem is subjectivity — it tries to produce a type of person without defining what is good.
