I would say that #15 could be modified (through cultural bias) to include statements similar to: "Not to hate fellow Christians," etc.
 
However, one could use the command as it stand as permission to hate those outside one's "group."
 
This, then, is countered by love your neighbor as yourself and do good to those who hate and use you once we determine that all of mankind of our brother.
