Of course, Protestants don't get it right either.

Gotta be divisive, hm? You can't simply affirm Scripture. Nice.

I’d like to think that ZC was just saying that most ‘christians’ are prone to misinterpreting [actually not even reading for themselves] the scriptures. Few there be that find it ~ salvation in Jesus Christ alone - see Romans 10:9-13.

Do not take the name of the Lord in vain is often interpreted as profanity mixed with references to God, but another more probable simple meaning is:

Do not pump yourself up with pride [vanity=pride] or be a chest-thumping christian. Are we not instructed to be meek and humble and boast only in what the Lord has done? Being a pride-filled christian is the worst sort ~ if one at all...
