And I know we're mostly atheists here, but please keep the theological discussion to a minimum and appreciate the lighthearted hypothetical scenario for what it is.

Thall shalt not run for political office and then switch sides halfway through.

Thall shalt not allow predators to sell underage girls to celebrities.

Thall shalt not incite a coup at your government headquarters

Thall shalt not give so many fucks about the arrangement of other people genitals or what they do with them.

Thall shalt not fuck with abortion laws or start repealing other progressive laws that have been in place for decades

Thall shalt not allow predators to sell underage girls to celebrities.

This one gives too much room for loopholes.

Thall shalt not sell, trade, or in any way own people.

This one seems better, it would also be better since it would apply not just now but also thousands (or hundreds, I don't know when it happened) of years ago.

People are ingenious getting around rules. The trader will make a gift of the slave to the property of the second person who will then make a gift of cash to the trader. The property owner will, of course, manage the slaves owned by the property.
