05/08/10 FOLKS WOULD RATHER DISPLAY THAN OBEY
People get all upset when some anti religion group or the State disallows the posting of the 10 Commandments in a court house or another public area. Christians don't even believe in all ten of the commandments, since Sabbath keeping was a sign and covenant between Jews and God; and sinning religion says you can't keep the other nine commandments (moral law). Love obeys; Obeying is better than Displaying.
