    The 10 commandments divide into two sections. Rules for the relation between people and God and rules for the relation between people and other people. 5 more would probably setup a third section. Like rules for the relation between people and nature or rules for one’s relation to oneself.

    1. Forgive your brother who has wronged you as you would want him to forgive your own transgressions.

    2. Honor creation and take only what you need from the mountains, streams, woodlands, and valleys.

    3. Respect the creatures of the earth as your brothers in creation.

    4. Avoid excesses and live humbly

    5. Love yourself for you were created in My image

      1. But not like that.
      2. No, not like that either…
      3. Listen you little shit, if I catch you doing that again I’ll come down from this cloud and seduce your wife as a swan.
