Without further anticipation, I present to you the real Ten Commandments (special thanks to jhuger.com for pointing it out to me.) I especially find #2 fun to read.

Exodus 34:12-28, King James Bible
I Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee: But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:
II For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God: Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice; And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.
III Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
IV The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.
V All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male. But the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.
VI Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
VII And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end. Thrice in the year shall all your menchildren appear before the LORD God, the God of Israel. For I will cast out the nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy land, when thou shalt go up to appear before the LORD thy God thrice in the year.
VIII Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.
IX The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God.
X Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel. 28And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.

OY VEY! What really gets me is this: And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water.

Now I've been told by some pretty reliable sources that the human body can't go without water for more than 7 days (give or take a few days) so I'd say that Moses must have been drinking something.....

Wasn't Noah, like, 650 years old when he died? I think their counting was a bit off in those days...

BTW, George Carlin learned the Commandments exactly as I did. He recites them verbatim to what I remember.
