Like the one that says not to have other gods and the one that says not to lie and the one that says not to covet other people's wealth? Or is it the amnesia where Jesus said his philosophy should replace that of Judaism? I guess we should be glad that the moron, Sloan, wasn't insisting that everyone only read the Bible like he does. But he IS an unabashed fan of Duck Dynasty...
