Exodus 20:15
Thou shalt not steal.
The eighth commandment confirms that God wants your stuff to be your stuff. As adamant as the alphabet mafia is about you using their preferred pronouns, it cannot compare to how adamant the communist crowd is about taking your possessive pronouns from you. A dude in a dress might insist that you call him a “her,” but a dude in a suit and tie might pass a law that calls your stuff “his.” In other words, the “they/them” nonsense is bad enough, but it does not hit as close to home as the “mine/thine” nonsense. That literally hits your home, or at least the dirt on which your home stands.
No one plays the preferred pronoun game better than someone proposing new legislation that turns “yours” into “theirs.” But our rights do not come from the state, they come from God. Our property is not ours because we pay our annual ransom note from the county, it is ours because God gave it to us. And so theft is theft, regardless of who is doing it. “Thou shalt not steal.” This is true regardless of who the “Thou” in question is. You shall not steal and your neighbor shall not steal. Even if one of you works for the government. No one should steal. God hates stealing so much, He gave us the eighth commandment telling us not to do it and then He gave us the tenth commandment to tell us to not even think about doing it.
