Ran across a site which claimed to explain the original meaning of the Ten Commandments. It seems some of those meanings have evolved a bit, too. In particular, there was a claim that the commandment on stealing was actually specifically about 'man stealing -- selling a free man into slavery. Certainly the US southerners were particularly sensitive to the term 'man stealer' in a way I didn't understand. Yep, I know he said all holy books. No, I don't know if this site was blowing hot air. It just read like someone had done their homework. http://xent.com/mailman/listinfo/fork
