Rogan responded:
I don’t think you’re gonna do it with a series of commandments. The problem with the 10 Commandments—not saying there’s a problem with the 10 Commandments—but if I was gonna put it in a school where there’s non-religious people, there’s a bunch of stuff in there—like not taking the Lord’s name in vain, not have any other gods before me…That would give people pause. They’d be like, “Wait a minute here. What are you telling me? I can’t take the Lord’s name in vain?”
“Imagine you get arrested for taking the Lord’s name in vain,” Rogan said, arguing that human beings always tend toward “more power and control.”
“If you put something like that in, what are you going to do? You got to enforce Christian law,” Rogan added. “What if someone enforces Sharia law? There’s a lot of talk of that. People in Minnesota are terrified that someone’s going to enforce Sharia law in these areas where giant Muslim populations are.”
McConaughey proposed mixing religions in order to come up with a 10 Commandments-like creed so that multiple religions could be satisfied.
“That would be an interesting way to do it,” Rogan said. “But the problem is, most religions are ideologically opposed to conflicting religions. They don’t want to accept that these other religions are correct about anything.” For example, Rogan explained, “Like Judaism and Christianity, they share a bunch of things, but they disagree on Jesus.”
“I just think there could be a creed, a bit of a constitution, and if you pull the author out, I think we could find more similarities that are not exclusionary than we would find things that are combative ideas,” McConaughey said.
