yet you never hear any Jews demanding the 10Cs be posted. Jesus had his own set of commandments, aka the Beatitudes, that talked about caring for those who struggle, showing grace in order to receive grace, being kind and generous and so on. You never see any of these "Christian" fundies demanding that Jesus' actual commandments be posted anywhere.
