I thought I was being rather literal minded about __where__, which
to my scrambled brain had an extra twist when dancing about with
literalism in scriptural exegesis, as well as with missing the point
I thought Mark was alluding to which has a reference in those who
like to erect statuary in the form of these 15 (oops), these 10
commandments. Ultimately, it's homage to Mel Brooks but some of
the common clay of the new West interpret it otherwise.

I wasn't having a go at you, I was having a wee bit of a poke at Mark
for putting quote marks around something he made up. I realise he was
just doing it for effect but he is inclined to use a blunderbuss when
having a go at religious people rather than using a shotgun if not a
rifle.
