How the Jews got the 10 commandments

[The ClayTaurus]

God went to the Arabs and said, "I have Commandments for you that will make your lives better."

And the Arabs asked,

"What are Commandments? Can you give us an example?"

"Thou shall not kill."

"Not kill?? No way! We're not interested."


So He went to the Blacks and said, "I have Commandments."

And the Blacks wanted an example, and the Lord said, "Honor thy Father and Mother."

"Father? Yo maan, can't tell who our fathers are, maan!"


So He went to the Mexicans and said, "I have Commandments."

And the Mexicans wanted an example, and the Lord said, "Thou shall not steal."

"No steal? No steal??? Hey Senor, we no steal then how we live, huh?? Gracias, but no!"


He went to the French and said, "I have Commandments."

The French wanted an example and the Lord said, "Thou shall not commit adultery."

"Not commit ze adultery..?? Non, non, monsieur, we French, we must have ze romance."


He went to the Jews and said, "I have Commandments."

"Commandments?" they asked, "how much do they cost?"

"They're free."

"We'll take 10."
