"A cultured Mohamedan once remarked to us, 'You Christians are so occupied in misinterpreting the fourth commandment that you have never thought of making an artistic application of the second.' "

And so here we all are proving the above statement to be correct, if only in the fact that we are discussing the former and ignoring the latter.

Interestingly enough, there's at least one page on the web that seems to make a distinction between the Christian and the Catholic Christian versions of the Ten Commandments.

The first places the "graven images" one in second place, and "keep the lord's day holy" in fourth place; the second place the "name in vain" one in second place, and "honour your father and mother" in fourth place.

"'Curiouser and curiouser', said Alice."

Myself, I'm all FOR the creative application of making graven images...
