A bunch of religious nuts "find" a country and make up new rules. Now, people that can't count to 10 use those documents to make crazy religious rules. Am I understanding this correctly?

I see that Louisiana is run by Clay Puppington... How many "lost commandments" are they going to include?
The Old Testament is a founding document for the kingdoms of Israel and Judah that establishes their lineage from the original humans to legendary Kings. Plus a bunch of laws, instructions for worship and whatnot.
People just took it too seriously and now we murder eachother over our imaginary friends.
Come on year of Jubilee! At least do the law against charging interest on loans!
Anyways, ya, the 11 are group the first two or the last two. If you group the first two, you sort of lessen the impact of "I am your god" with stuff about idols - but if you group the last two "don't covet your neighbors property, such as: wife, house, horses, etc..." you basically are saying wives are property.
