I actually had an interesting e-debate on this site about the 10 Commandments -- Greg Easterbrook wrote a very silly piece about how we could cut the 10 to 6, omitting the "exclusivity" Commandments relating to Jehovahan monotheism -- "designer Commandments". In other words, make the Judeo-Christian edifice simply an ethical belief system. The discussion that followed was most interesting. It convinced me that the militant secularization of our society has proceeded much further along than most people think.

Which version was he going to cut: Protestant, Catholic or Jewish?
