Yep. Because stealing is a crime that goes back thousands of years. It was an old crime by the time the 10 commandments were written down. Meanwhile, copyright infringement is a new thing that’s maybe a few centuries old at most, and it’s a lot more morally ambiguous. Is it wrong to infringe on a monopoly that the government has given a corporation over the sharing of a tangible expression of an idea? Maybe sometimes? Maybe not other times?

Most people don’t live in Northern Ontario.
Most Ontarians live in cities.
Humans are descended from apes, humans are apes, and humans are cousins of the other modern apes.
We’re not descended from chimpanzees, but both we and chimpanzees descend from another ape.
Piracy has never been stealing. It’s copyright infringement. The two are completely different.
Also, most people are nearly athiests.
Christians deny the existence of Zeus, Ra, Mars, Shiva, Odin, Thor, Kali, Horus, Tew, Huitzilopochtli, Pele, Erra… Of all the gods and goddesses that people have ever said exist, Christians don’t believe in any of them other than their one god. Even Hindus, who have a pantheon with multiple gods, generally don’t believe in the gods of other religions.
Still doesn’t make it a “commandment”.
A commandment is an order like “You shall not murder.” It is an action that you could take, but are being ordered not to take. How would someone violate the Jewish 1st commandment?
If it were something like “I am the Lord Your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, and you shall never suggest that that isn’t what happened”, then it would be a commandment. As it stands, it’s not a commandment, it’s just backstory.
Hopefully it won’t be, but charging an electric car is still not a standard thing for apartment buildings to offer tenants. So, for the moment, that’s a major reason for renters to not take the plunge.
Well, it’s 10, so it can’t be the Jewish version. I’m guessing the Protestant version.
The jewish one, the catholic one or the protestant one?
it’s super convenient to never go to a gas station again, and to wake up to a full tank
But, to make that possible, you basically have to have a “gas station” at home. If you own your own house you can modify it to install a charging spot. If you rent, you might not have that option.
I don’t have a parking space at my apartment
A way to charge it at home is also a major issue for anybody who lives in an apartment.
I wonder if the people who wrote the law know that there are multiple versions of the 10 commandments.
They’re pretty similar, but the numbers don’t match up.
The commandment against killing is #6 for Jews and Protestants, but #5 for Catholics. Stealing is #8 for Jews and Protestants, but #7 for Catholics. Then there are some bigger differences.
For Jews #2 says “You shall have no other gods beside me. You shall not make for yourself a sculptured image, or any likeness of what is in the heavens above or on the earth below, or in the waters under the earth.” That’s effectively split into #1 and #2 for Protestants, with #1 being “no other gods” and #2 being “no graven images”. For Catholics, “no other gods” is #1, but they got rid of the bit about graven images, presumably so they can have old finger bones people can worship, or statues to Mary. So, for Catholics #2 says not to take the name of their god in vain. Catholics make up for that by having a commandment against coveting the milf next door and a second one about your neighbour’s stuff, whereas Jews and Protestants have just 1 commandment against coveting your neighbour’s stuff.
Also, the Jews didn’t seem to understand the assignment for #1, because it’s not actually a commandment, it’s backstory: “I am the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, the house of bondage.” So, Jews really have 9 commandments and 1 informational message.
Also, fun loophole. All 3 versions say “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” #9 for Jews and Protestants, #8 for Catholics. But, if someone isn’t your neighbour… Loophole!
Here, you dropped these:
