I hope that “the oldest surviving copy of the Ten Commandments” found in the latest Dead Sea Scrolls discovery includes the Eleventh Commandment. Some theorists (like me) believe that it was deleted from later versions of the Decalogue because authorities feared its potential for undermining religion and dogmatic belief systems in general.
The Eleventh Commandment reads: “Thou shalt use the brain in thy head which the Lord thy God hath given thee.”
If our ancestors had heeded its wise advice, the world might now be a better place.
