'til next time!

I once did a deep dive into the commandments, teachings, pillars, rules—whatever label the world’s major religions gave their moral codes. I read through the Bible, the Quran, the Torah, the Tao Te Ching, Buddhist teachings, even some tribal belief systems. All of them had different flavors, rituals, and stories—but when you strip away the incense, the robes, the chants, and the translations, guess what the core message boiled down to?

Don’t. Be. A. Dick.

That’s it. That’s the thesis. Don’t lie, don’t steal, don’t kill, don’t screw people over, don’t act like the center of the damn universe. Be kind, help others, say thank you once in a while, and if you screw up—own it. You don’t need a theology degree or enlightenment from a mountain monk to grasp this.

But here’s the real kicker: it’s simple, not easy. Ego gets loud. Pride gets in the way. Fear and anger turn people into walking middle fingers. And before you know it, you’ve become the very jackass you swore you weren’t.

“Don’t be a dick” is more than a joke or a bumper sticker—it’s a code. It’s the real golden rule without all the religious fluff. Live it, and the world gets a little less stupid. Ignore it, and congratulations, you're part of the problem.

So yeah, whether you're quoting scripture or just trying to not be the worst part of someone’s day, remember this: all the sacred texts pretty much agree—just don’t be a dick.
