It wasn't an easy task for Moses to climb Mount Sinai and return with his stone tome of commandments from God. To make matters worse, his people had behaved badly while he was away, and something had to be done. God suggested Moses write a questionnaire for them to answer. Hopefully, this would help them come to their senses.To make it short and to the point, Moses wrote 51 haiku questions. The people answered the questions out of their own free will and found it to be great fun, even more so when they discovered they knew all the answers.The greatest wonder of all was that every single participant won first prize; to live in a new world where peace and happiness reigned. Where there were no more wars. Where everybody cared for everybody because they no longer thought of themselves first.And in doing so, they brought a new peaceful world into existence, simply by answering truthfully and living up to the questions Moses had posed them.
