I’m curious as to why those two commandments exist in every religion, except those without a concept of God, which have only the second.

easy. God wrote these things in our very being. It’s part of the “general revelation” which drives humans to seek Him.

Romans 2:14-15
14 for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, 15 who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them)
