Every single person who thinks the 10 Commandments should be displayed...

[Misunderestimator]

on government property should be struck with lightning for every commandment they have broken. Wonder how few would be left standing.

1. Next time you meet somebody who supports it...

ask them if they can recite the ten commandments off the top of their head. I'll bet most of them can't.

6. I just ask them for the first three

problematic commandments, you know, the establishment commandments. They're usually stonkered.

These fools haven't read the whole list since they were children. They've completely forgotten those first 3 commandments forbid other religions and also forbid the graven images like ten commandments monuments.

It seems the easiest way to be religious is to be utterly ignorant of what actually constitutes the religious heritage.

Some people choose the harder way, that of knowing their heritage fully and putting it into daily practice. Alas, they appear to be a minority.

7. Oh, God, I'd have to ask my livein boyfriend if he knows,

but right now he's at the Wal-Mart shoplifting er, I mean eyeing a new digital camera like our neighbors just bought, got to keep up with the Joneses don't a know? My folks never buy us cool stuff - I hate them - I'm just gonna call Goddamn Child Protective Services and lie about the brusises the kids got to blame them on Mom and her new boyfriend (wonder where Dad is anyway - he left for work three Sundays ago and just never came home...hope his brakes didn't fail...hehehe).

Oh, did I tell you I voted for bush...God Bless Amerika

2. Does this apply to married persons as well?

4. What... you think you're special if you're married?

3. Ask them how many of the commandments are reflected in US law

when they say our law is based on the 10c's.

5. The hypocrites want them displayed....not followed

Following them would mean them not being displayed....since for far too many the symbols of religion have been placed above (before) the God of their religion(Commandment #1). Which causes me a good laugh, I must admit. I do so enjoy the irony.

[Debi]

8. Actually I think it's more #2 than #1...the whole graven images thing

but these guys have forgotten the greatest comandment (which isn't one of the ten....Love thy neighbor as thy self)

[Solly Mack]

9. When a symbol becomes the God, it's 1

...and when hypocrisy becomes the God (and for the theocrats it has)but yes, 2 applies as well.

10. :)

[FreedomAngel82]

12. Yep

It's becoming idol worshipping. And if you think about it the Ten Commandments were given to Moses who was a Jew. Christ wasn't around then (obviously) so this isn't a Christian thing.

11. Can't argue with that logic.
