gollark: In what way?

gollark: 5 is just elder-worship, which I do *not* agree with, no murdering is reasonable but narrow in scope, the adultery one doesn't seem very important or fundamental-law-y, stealing is bad I guess, bearing false witness is somewhat bad too I guess, the coveting ones seem unnecessary.

gollark: I like to hope I would be better than to demand obedience/worship/belief on pain of eternal torture.

gollark: Just looking up the ten commandments quickly, fully two fifths of these are just bizarre narcissistic stuff about God.

gollark: Yes, quran also bad.
