your words are like that of a child saying he doesn't have to listen to his parents. the commandments do not fit the definition of arbitrary because they all have a reason.

not based on random choice or personal whim. they are based on reason. many aggree with most of the reasoning. examples: murder, stealing, lying, etc. you may not understand the reasoning but that doesn't take it away from it.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
