I would be such a half-ass god, I only get 5.
1. Take great care of your body.
2. Build a strong mind.
3. Develop skill sets that exploit and enhance 1 and 2.
4. Clean up your messes and fix your mistakes.
5. If you work in a hardware store, don't interrupt me when I'm thinking.
I couldn't even come up with a good 5th.

Ranjr, no. 5 is a cracker. I think i'd have to have 11 commandments.

1. Never get caught.
2. Never leave witnesses.
3. Hostages are expendable.
4. Fire gets rid of evidence.
5. So does acid.
6. Cops can be bribed.
7. There are always more victims.
8. Organs are worth good money on the black market.
9. Never keep evidence/souvenirs in your place of residence.
10. If you remember 1 to 5, and plan carefully, you won't get caught.

If I were a god, I'd have only one commandment:
1. What's mine is mine and what's yours is mine as well. Amen, dominus oblis, we be allright.

I beg to disagree, Brian.
Football in all of its manifestations, including the GAA version would falleth within commandment 10. Hurling does not for the following reasons which i can assert because i have obersved it live in Croke Park; (this was in the days of DJ Carey).
1 football is played by rational, mortal humans.
2 football is sport and thus a cult of physical fitness.
Hurling is neither. Their players are irrational and more likely than not, immortal or at the very least, have no fear of death. This links to point 2. Hurling is a blood sport that merely happens to be played out in a grassy field. It is a cult of terror, violence, war and savagery. I forget where i read it, but i understand that the average career of a non-professional / professional player in the top league is 2.3 games.

While football may be played by men and women, hurling is played by gods among men. Camogie by godesses.
