I just googled them:
1.Do not worship any other gods
I don't have a problem with that. Could be tree worship, Islam or anything.
Sure it came from the christian teachings but could be applied to most other religions. Could also be skewed into don't worship any gods.
2. Do not make any idols.
I'm sure catholics might be offended by that one, but especially the folks making $$$ from those little Jesus and mary figurines.
3. Don't misuse the name of god
Again, could be applied to any religion, even yourself if you wish
4. Keep the sabbath holy
Could be applied to any religion
5. Honor your father & mother
I don't see a problem with that one either.

Surely many could find those as "offensive" but congress had passed no law regarding those, and were simply displayed in our courthouse by our elected officials.

6. Don't murder
7. Keep your private parts to yourself and your spouse
8. Don't steal
9. Don't lie
10. Don't scheme to get your neighbors belongings.

6 out of 10 good suggestions to govern society I don't have a problem with.
