Ten Commandments in Texas schools — poorly focused first lawsuit

Yes, it's nice that interfaith leaders have sued the state.

And, their personal concerns about the state teaching their kids morality are noted.

But, as a real get-on-and-ride vehicle? 

This ain't it.

Nowhere, from what I can tell from the Trib story, do they raise the REAL issue:

WHOSE Ten Commandments?

Setting aside the definitely different Jewish and Samaritan versions, are we talking

The Catholic / Anglican-Episcopalian / Orthodox / (and some other Christians) version?

The Lutheran version?

The Calvinist / Anabapist version?

This is like trying to shove coerced school prayer into Texas and dueling between a "Jesus, we just want to ..." Baptist prayer and a Catholic asking everybody to pray the rosary.

I didn't need Wiki to tell me any of this, but if you do (and we know the Lege does) here you go.
