Perhaps. But commandments not followed are just words on paper.

And many Christians do try to live their faith.

Same with many Atheists.

Commandments? Issued by what authority?
The Golden Rule pretty much covers it all.

LOL! Except they're not Atheists, they're Anti-theists. A-theists have no concern with or use for theism, thus are rarely found discussing such, let alone laying down "Commandments"... to oppose that for which they've no concern.

1? Their minds have never been open and they do not possess the means to learn, this to alter their beliefs when faced with new evidence.

2? They're incapable of recognizing truth, thus their need to qualify truth as that which is 'most likely' true. By that very qualification, they open the door to the belief in that which is false. (Which is Evil)

3? The Scientific Method is only worthy when the scientific method is objective. And The Anti-theism is steeped in Relativism, which AXIOMATICALLY REJECTS Objectivity. Thus, their appeal to science is fallacious, thus false... despite being represented as TRUTH. Therefore it is a deceit, Fraudulently advanced as a means to influence the Ignorant. OKA: Evil.

And so goes the balance of the 'suggestions', offered up by the Anti-theists; animated by Evil and demonstrated to be such by the deceit common to such.

For eight years I was smote by the golden ruler of Nuns.
That pretty well fucked my head up for the next 30 years.

A prayer for adultery?

Again... they're evil, doing what evil does best: promoting human misery.

So you feel the story of the Creator of the Universe represents Magic?

Man-written words penned by folks who showed up by happenstance over 8 billion years after the fact. Yeah that's about right.

By the way.... THEY CALL ME MISTER SCAMP!

Lets look at what an all knowing God came up with:

“You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

Taking out the sins of the fathers on innocent children for generations. All from a jealous God who can't stand the thought of someone carving an image

True. Which is why I am always suspicious of things like this. It implies that just because someone calls themselves something they embody what they claim that group espouses. There are many good theists and many good atheists, but I suggest they are good because they are good people - not because of what they believe about gods. Either one has an open mind or one doesn't, and pointing to a "commandment" has absolutely no bearing on that fact.
