Well, they break a lot more than just one, but this one in particular is quite obvious.
The second command says "You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or 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."
Well, your god is in "the heaven above", so is any other god who visited the Earth before your god did. Also, you keep claiming your god is in everything that is part of the Earth - the rocks, the water, the air and so on. But this command says you can not worship anything that is part of the planet. So basically your god commands you not to worship him either thus contradicting his own first command. And what about the "carved image" part? He commands you not to make a carved image of ANYTHING and yet you (christians) keep producing statues of christ and all sorts of things with his presumable face. So, the way I see it - you constantly break his law.
Let's skip to the 6th command - "you shall not kill". And yet it wasn't just one or two times when I was threatened with death by christians because I refuse to accept the bullshit they believe.
So, if my refusal to accept your bullshit makes me sinner, it turns out you're even more sinful than I am.
I think that you are unjustifiably breaking up the text. The issue becomes when you are worshipping the thing that you made (statue).
As to your comment on the 6th commandment, I think you need to provide more details to comment. I think that if they are informing you of the consequences of sin, that would be different, from threatening for them to kill you themselves, if you don't conform to what they believe. I don't think that simply saying that you are going to die, applies here.
