I am not "apologetic" either. I feel no guilt for being a non-Christian. And I really do not get how this "apology" thing even relates to what was said....
All I am saying is from an author who wants to sell books and still get her message out as well as her use of the phrase "10 commandments" and the wording and order of them was rather clever. Nothing is set in stone, there are no "rules" for being a Pagan but for someone learning this is an interesting guide that draws you in with a concept you already understand.

I am not a Pagan apologetic and I don't think this is a Christian world. This is a somewhat outdated illustration of the division of religions in the world but while Christians comprise the largest group, they are not a majority by any means.
