The 10 commandments are a survival code for civilizations. The Akadian version ante-dated the Jewish version by a thousand years and had only 6 of the 10. i.e only the first 4 commandments were unique to the Jews. Here are the 10 commandments put another way.
1. God IS. Scream as much as you like.
2. If you devote your life to a Godless existance you are throwing it away.
3. You will ponder all this and your accountability on at least 1 day a week.
4. Dont trivialize God. Note the common expression/exclamation 'Oh my God!' - highly offensive.
5. Respect and care for your Parents. You may be all they have.
6. Never take a life, or cause any one harm.
7. Do not engage in promiscuity, especially with another person's spouse. Stay faithful to vows.
8. Do not claim as your own, anything that belongs to another.
9. Do not spread false information about others. Do not blacken another's reputation.
10.Never try 'to keep up with the Joneses' or be envious of anything they have.
