Tenets

#1: no recruiting–nothing corrupts better.  If questioned about the APR, politely share the website address, then be quiet. If pressed for more information, explain that recruitment corrupts. Indoctrinating (i.e. brainwashing) children (under the age of 16) is absolutely prohibited and any sign that this is occurring should be immediately reported to the website. If a child presses on the subject, again just share the website address, and explain religious decisions are best left until one has had the opportunity to look them all over.

#2: adore nothing–the First Commandment almost got it right. Respect everything and everyone but give nothing or anyone status outside of its own arena. Besides cheating and natural causes, all of our ills are caused by adoring someone or something, idea or material.

#3: serve others–after you have taken care of your own needs, and until you can do that, you are prescribed to educate yourself in academics and manual labor. If you can’t seem to satisfy your own needs even though your pantry is full, you’ve forgotten to value yourself by how valuable you are to all.

#4: cheat no one–e.g. no violence against another unless immediately physically threatened. cheating includes lying to gain advantage, including failing to disclose what, if it had been known, a different agreement would have been reached. This includes in sports also. Cheating is cheating, caught by the referees or not.

#5: no comparing religions-a waste of time similar to comparing Superman to Mighty Mouse.
