The perhaps silly question I always have is about putting up the "ten commandments" in schools & courthouses & stuff is do they specify in those bills that they should use the Protestant 10 Commandments or does the Catholic version count too?
For those who don't know, the original text refers to the fact that YHWH gave Moses 10 "commandments", but it doesn't tell you where they are separated, so Protestants & Catholics break apart & number the commandments differently.
