Does this made up religion camadments sound fair?

1.)Thou shall be peaceful to all
Peace gives off more peace to create a unity of peace. That is the goal of my religion.

2.)Thou shall be cooperative to all that is in the code
cooperation for good goals makes them realities. To be in the code it measn to follow the code, believing that it is true or not is optional.

3.)Thou shall be co-existent to all out the code
To create enemies,live regrets, indulge in violence and fighting, draw unneeded blood, and harm others is for fools who are to weak to win with their minds, fools are outside the code.

4.)Thou shall live in harmony with nature and each other.
Without nature and other people we are nothing, we treat all animals, all plants,all people with respect.

5.) Thou shall not consume drugs unsubscribed by an elder.
Your body and spirit is a gift, do not damage it in pride.

6.)Thou shall be honest, responsible, loyal,brave, wise, and respectful to all.
Lies are for weaklings of the truth .Cowards who are not loyal to comrades weak. Responsibility,respect, loyalty, and bravery gives us discipline and endurance. Discipline and endurance is the way of the code.

7.)thou shall control not destroy, thou shall heal not harm, though shall defend not attack.
Control is to bring peace among enemies,for defense, not attacking. To use there energy against them selves, to redirect energy paths in their body to the code without harming them marks a follower of the code.

8.)Thou shall be accepting to all within the code, thou shall not judge, thou shall forgive often.
Acceptance to diversity is for the wise.

9) Thou shall help the disadvantage, life that needs something they don't have.
To break the code you are a fool(brave but unwise), to strictly follow the code and not help those in need is worst than a fool. Be flexible, do the right choice that benefits the disadvantage with you own power(that means if you feel like giving money to charity, it has to be your own money,you can't steal the money from a bank and say the code wills it and whatnot .)
_____________________________
To be on the code will give you a good life,not an easy life.
To not follow the code will be an easy life,not a good life.

An outsider is a fool,with the exception of code 9. You can be with the code without believing in the code.

Does this religion like thing sound good so far? do you see any faults in it?
I believe if people follow this code( believing is optional,but encouraged ) there will be a lot less hate and wars.

Oh and what should this religion be called?

what is your opinion?

Does using archaic English make it more valid?

Seems to for Christians.

Changing "Thou shalt not" to "Don't" loses a lot of the authority conveyed in the wording, it would seem.

Nice sentiment, but does this include being peaceful to murderous sociopaths or genocidal armies?
Ravenstorm wrote:2.)Thou shall be cooperative to all that is in the code
What's the code? Your religion?
Ravenstorm wrote:3.)Thou shall be co-existent to all out the code
I refer to the issues of one.
Ravenstorm wrote:4.)Thou shall live in harmony with nature and each other.

Define respect.
Ravenstorm wrote:5.) Thou shall not consume drugs unsubscribed by an elder.

Are doctors elders? What do you define as being drugs?
Ravenstorm wrote:6.)Thou shall be honest, responsible, loyal,brave, wise, and respectful to all.
Define all of these.
Ravenstorm wrote:7.)thou shall control not destroy, thou shall heal not harm, though shall defend not attack.
On an individual level this somewhat addresses the issues with one by using imprisonment and non fatal weapons or combat techniques. On a broader scale you still have problems with any genocidal armies that come your way.
Ravenstorm wrote:8.)Thou shall be accepting to all within the code, thou shall not judge, thou shall forgive often.
How often? Where's the fine line between unwanted judgment and needed discernment?
Ravenstorm wrote:9) Thou shall help the disadvantage, life that needs something they don't have.
That's good.
Unless indicated otherwise what I say is opinion. (Kudos to Zzyzx for this signature).

@chaosboarders

thank you for constructive criticism.

1.) peaceful to all in the religion......the code is the rules for the religion. like how the religion Christanity has the rules in the bible and 10 commandments
in the code means that you follow it, you do NOT have to believe in the religion or code. but if you follow it,do what it says, you are in the code.....example:
atheist: is a good person would be in the code,following the code
someone who claims they are in this religion but is a mass murder wouldn't be in the code.

2.) the code is the rules for the religion. like how the religion Christianity has the rules in the bible and 10 commandments

3.) um.... itry to be co existent.....but for defence you can fight. to difine defence: attacking to protect someone else or yourself.

4.) respect: to treat someone how they want to be treated....if you don't know how they want to be treated....typically how you would want to be treated.

5.) elders: doctors are elders. drugs:anything that can magorly harm the body. weed,marijuana,etc.....too much of a good medicine (like an entire bottle of protein pills)

6.) honest: telling the truth. but if let's say you need a ride home from school and you missed the bus. some stranger offers to drive you(looks drunk) he asks if you need a ride. the truth would be yes.....but for self defense from dangers of this you would lie and say no. truth....um.....a fact? i didn't really think this through too much

responsible: if you say you will do something, you do it. doing something that is necessary to be done. reliable to carry out a task

loyal: care about the person you are loyal too well being. and does what s/he says. exception:if the person you are loyal to asks you to do something outside the code. faithful to someone or something.

brave: doing something that has a risk that will benefit someone or something else.

wise: thinking or doing something that would benefit the most.
if you had the choice to save a forest....but the forest is half dead and nothing is living it ......
or use the wood to make an adoption center for babys that need to be adopted.
the adoption center would benefit the most. so that would be the wise choice.
judging properly to what is true or right

respect: to treat someone how they want to be treated....if you don't know how they want to be treated....typically how you would want to be treated.

7.) for defense you fight. defense to protect someone or something else,or yourself

8.) often as in meaning: forgive people who did something that they did not intentionally do but it upsetted you. such as if they accidentally ran over yoor cat in their first time driving....you would forgive them. if someone on purpose killed your cat um it's your choice to forgive them, that would count as the part that makes often not always so it wouldn't be counted against you.
