@wildgrass saidToo right.
The genius of the Kurt Vonnegut snippet is to expose the fact all the people saying we are Christian nation would have to admit that we are not if we only put up Jesus quotes in the halls instead of the Ten Commandments.
@Mott-The-Hoople saidYou do realize that the Ten Commandments are in the OT, not the NT, don't you?
LOL...you do realize the same ten commandments are in the quran dont you?
Jesus has replaced Mosaic Law for Gentiles. They only have merit for Jews.
Why are supposed Christians so hot on the Ten Commandments (not realizing, of course, that Mosaic Law contains well over 400 'commandments' )?
Because they use it to choose whom to shun, whom to rail against, even though most "Christians" have violated more than one of those 'commandments'.
@wildgrass saidWasn’t one of the 10 commandments something about not appearing 1.000.000 times in the Epstein files, and having sex with with people you’re not married to?
The Ten Commandments are going up inside US schools, turning secular education into religious indoctrination. But, why so obsessed with the commandments? Why not something like the Beatitudes? Please explain. Here's Kurt Vonnegut:

@Mott-The-Hoople saidMore irony!
So you are stupid, now what?
You can't hear yourself, can you?
Or, probably, you don't care.
Why do you hate America?
@wildgrass saidEverybody else is. Or are you suggesting the Epstein files antisemitic?
Moses was in the Epstein files?
@shavixmir saidIf Moses delivered those tablets today, Trump would take his sharpie marker and cross out the adultery and blasphemy and coveting neighbors stuff and false idolatry and bearing false witness parts.

There'd be nothing left except the fairly obvious don't steal and don't murder. Grade school kids already know that.
@wildgrass saidI’m surprised he hasn’t had the bloody bible re-written, with his name instead of God in it.

@wildgrass saidTrump doesn't have a problem with theft and murder. Where did you get the idea that he did?
