Ten Commandments of God
Exodus XX
1. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them or serve them. For I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
.
2. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
.
3. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work; but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your manservant, or your maidservant, or your cattle, or the sojourner who is within your gates; for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
.
4. Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
.
5. You shall not kill.
.
6. You shalt not commit adultery.
.
7. You shalt not steal.
.
8. You shalt not bear false witness against your neighbor.
.
9. You shalt not covet your neighbor's wife.
.
10. You shalt not covet your neighbor's goods.

1350. The Protestant Bible gives the second commandment as referring to images. But the Catholic Catechism gives it as referring to taking the name of God in vain, omitting the references to images.
Even the Protestant Bible does not give the second commandment as referring to images, though Protestants are usually taught that those words in the first commandment which refer to images constitute a second commandment.

1351. The Roman Church omits the second commandment, and then breaks up the tenth into two, in order to avoid having only nine.
The reverse is the case. Protestants make the first commandment into two, and then, to escape having eleven, turn the ninth and tenth into one! The first commandment, as given in The Bible, is as follows: "I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt not have strange Gods before me. Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, nor of those things that are in the waters under the earth. Thou shalt not adore them, nor serve them. I am the Lord thy God, etc." Exodus, XX., 1-6
The statue Christ the Redeemer is just another example of the RCC following their apostate tradition of idolatry. This violates the 2nd Commandment yet they continually disregard God's laws and make their own.
In the perfect world, all Catholics (and all other Christians) would not commit adultery. However, since all Catholics are humans, they have the same weaknesses as all humans and some of them do violate the commandment 'Thou shalt not commit adultery.' The commandment spells it out but man has free will to follow God's word or to ignore it.
A person baptized as a Catholic who is not a practicing Catholic or a 'cafeteria Catholic' - one who picks and chooses what parts of the religion to follow and which to disregard. Sometimes Anglicans or Episcopalians are referred to as quasi Catholics because some of their beliefs and services are similar to those of Catholics. Catholics refer to them as non-Catholics - Protestants.
The second commandment in the Bible prohibits the making of graven images or idols to worship. This commandment can impact the act of making vows because some individuals may associate swearing by an idol or image with a sense of false security or reliance on something other than God. In essence, the second commandment emphasizes the importance of placing one's faith and trust solely in God, rather than in material objects or representations.
The tree itself was not evil. It was that the fruit contained god's knowledge and wisdom and the evil was in people who chose to disregard gods only commandment and eat from it and then lie to god about it.
They have different churches mainly because, the catholic church have idols of Mary and protestants object to idols in any form, as acording to the first commandment.
The fourth commandment!
Thou shalt not leave candy wrappers or trashin desks, for they shalt attract pests.
I amthe LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
"Disregard the errors" I will now disregard everything, because I'm angry.
Disregarded is the past tense of disregard.
.Catholic AnswerHate is usually dealt with under the fifth commandment: You shall not kill, the commandments about lying and coveting deal with the results of hating, or are concurrent with them.
