I'll be the first to admit that there is a huge overlap between evangelicals (who pushed this initiative) and racist/fascist pieces of shit - but the ten commandments in and of themselves have no link to nazi-ism. :p

The actual Commandments or the deliberate mistranslations?

Because the original flavor is very clearly a list of rules made to enable theocratic control and create a religious apartheid.

I was unaware the translation was this far off base. Can you give more about this? I love hearing about how bastardized the Bible has become from the ages of playing telephone.

This is like the rambling of street person after a week long math binge. Like, are these a bunch of idioms that just lose meaning in translation? And what's up with all the hate over yeast?

Yeah. It's partly why I don't care if those get posted!

Just insist on liturgical accuracy.
