Snagged from The Revealer, a list of commandments to stem the tide of sexual foolin’ among pastors.

Thou shalt not go to lunch alone with the opposite sex.*

Thou shalt not have the opposite sex pick you up or drive you places when it is just the two of you.*

Thou shalt not kiss any attender of the opposite sex or show affection that could be questioned.*

Thou shalt not visit the opposite sex alone at home.

Thou shalt not counsel the opposite sex alone at the office, and thou shalt not counsel the opposite sex more than once without that person’s mate. Refer them.

Thou shalt not discuss detailed sexual problems with the opposite sex in counseling. Refer them.

Thou shalt not discuss your marriage problems with an attender of the opposite sex.

Thou shalt be careful in answering emails, instant messages, chatrooms, cards, or letters from the opposite sex.

Thou shalt make your secretary your protective ally.

Thou shalt pray for the integrity of other staff members.

* The first three do not apply to unmarried staff. (Pastors.com)

I propose that “praying for the integrity of other staff members” should be stricken from the list and a new #1 rule should be put in that would set the tone and wrap up all the others.

Thou shalt keep thine hands off and thy pecker in thy pants.

Seems to me that should about cover it. Wonder what Sexless in the City thinks of this?
