Don't be fooled ( Exodus 20 v 1 - 6 )

The  rooster was a proud animal ,when I crow, he said , the sun comes up,all the animals believed him,for it appeared to them ,that this  was true,for as the rooster said,,every time the he crowed the sun came up. So the rooster became a creature to be feared,and even to be worshipped,and so the rooster exercised great power,and he began to believe that he was god.He started to bring in rules and regulations,some were very oppressive,he also did not like the pigs,so he started a hate campaign against them.So the animals joined in ,the horse would kick the pigs,and the cows would poke them with their horns,cruelty became the order of the day.There was only one thing to do  said the rooster ,we must find a way of getting rid of those filthy animals,so things became worse and worse,for the poor pigs.Then it happened,the rooster,who had been up the night before,partying fell ill,and could not get up out of his bed. Now this caused the animals to panic,the sun is not going to come up,but to their relief it did,and then it happened,the rooster died,but the sun kept coming up everyday,and then the penny dropped,and gradually the animals realised that the rooster was not a god,he was but a rooster. Let us remember, none of us are god's,and that there is only one God,and He alone is to be worshipped and obeyed.
