Tao Bible - Deuteronomy 8:19

And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish.
~ King James version ~

Tao has no expectations.
~ possible Taoist alternative ~
Moses warns the people that, once they occupy and prosper in the "promised land", if they neglect to worship their God, he will destroy them!

Tao requires no obedience. Tao is here for all to make use of, but it's up to each of us to decide what that use is. Tao is impartial, so no one or thing is punished by the Way. When we stray from the path of harmony, we punish ourselves.
