Yes. If you asked 100 church going Catholics to define graven image, 100 would probably get it wrong. |
Also haven’t been told a million times that elementary schools kids are too young to hear about sex in school? Why are we suddenly clamoring to explain adultery to them? |
Nobody is forcing the teachers to actually teach anything. They just have to have the thing on their wall. ![]() |
I don't believe you. You have no proof. This is opinion. |
It's not my opinion. I am no scholar of ancient religious texts. But experts in such things explain that there are many different translations and versions of the 10 commandments. |
I think there is a problem with morality in this country. When you have 50% of voters supporting a man who has repeatedly shown that he is not a moral person, there’s a problem. Until republicans can say we will only support people who follow the Ten Commandments then it’s hypocritical to post the list everywhere and tell other people to follow them. Shameless. |
You are not well versed in Christianity, are you? |
Here is one summary. The way the commandments are posted gives an indication of what is the preferred religion. https://www.learnreligions.com/different-versions-of-the-ten-commandments-250923 |
Some Democrats are sinners, sure. But they're not a cult that worships a guy who has stolen repeatedly and cheated on all three of his wives. |
Catholic commandments aren’t taken from Exodus 20, thus are not biblical. |
The commandments are in the Bible three other times besides Exodus 20. |
And? |
So they could be not taken from Exodus 20 and still be biblical. |
I’m a Catholic was raise in a very strict, you will miss your state tennis match to attend d Church on a Holy Day of Obligation home— and who has had 6 of the 7 sacraments (almost died as an infant, got last rites; clearly not Holy Orders). We don’t do graven images. So that’s one vote against them. 99 more Catholics want to chime in. |
Kid raises hand. “Mrs. Teacher, what adultery?” When Mrs. Teacher says “you need to ask your parents,” two things happen. One, the Moms Of Liberty blow a gasket when Larla comes home and says “Mrs. Teacher says I should ask you what adultery is,” and two, every classroom has that kid who goes and looks it up in the dictionary, because the teacher is clearly uncomfortable and won’t answer the question (and I know this because I was 100% the kid who would have headed straight for the dictionary, and then read the definition to the class— and one of my kids was also that kid— which occasionally ended badly). Also, coveting your neighbors wife makes for an interesting discussion. Meanwhile, Harry Potter is deemed unfit for the classroom library. Umm. Okay then. |
