"The public display of the Ten Commandments upsets you (causes your suffering) so much that to feel better you would NEED to have the Four Noble Truths displayed? "

Ah but suffering is not relived by action it is relieved by detachment.

So ok, I'm still struggling at being a Buddhist. :-)

Well, The Ten Commandments doesn't bother me. Even the Taliban destroying the statue didn't bother me---I thought it showed the truth in the Dharma...nothing is set in stone. Don't become attached to things, for they will all crumble into dust.
