The reason I'm interested in knowing what the 1st Commandment originally meant
(or, more importantly, from an evolution-of-religion point of view, what it
means to people nowadays) is because religions are memes vying for dominance
in the minds of their hosts, and I'm curious how the 1st Commandment figures
into Christianity's current toehold.
