According to a new survey reported in the Catholic News Service, the Big Mac wins the memory contest.
Personally, I lost interest in the ten commandments right after the one about "no shirt no service". Also, you're apparently not allowed to fornicate.
As Tom Lehrer once wrote, the Church has to improve its product line. Maybe they could make Ronald McDonald Pope.

Let's make this perfectly clear. The Ten Commandments aren't about 'church' or 'religion'. They are codified rules of society. Follow them and society functions well. Ignore them, or cast them aside as foolish rules that a more progressive and sophisticated society doesn't need to follow, at your own peril.
Kind of stupid to think that just because people can't rhime off the ten commandments they don't know right from wrong.
If you stick to the golden rule - you should do just fine.
The ten commandments are absolutely unnecessary. If you are unable to identify from right and wrong without being told what is then maybe you should be locked up because you are an anti-social and a threat to society. Anyone else find it odd that they need to be told what is right and wrong on paper.
If there was no bible, would all these people be on a murderous rampage?

No...have you observed those loony religious fundamentalists? If they didn't have a list of "do's" and "don't's" with eternal damnation as punishment, they'd be raping children, committing adultery and slaughtering innocents even more than they do now.
They already lie with impunity and hold everyone who disagrees with them in profound contempt. These people need commandments.
You must be a journalist to misrepresent a story like that.
They do a memory test. Memory. Not 'popularity', but memory. Get it? You can't just infer that a better memory on a subject means it's more popular. Or right. Or that it proves evolution. Or global warming. Or whatever cause du jour you Libtards are on about.
Clearly, the public school system hasn't doing it's job here.
Anon 4:50,
The title of the source news story uses the phrase "more popular".
You're right. Sorry...I'm the one who's the retard. I'll shut up from now on.
The term 'Liberal' always brings to mind the term fornicating heathen thieves. I don't know why, it just does.

You sound jealous.
The Ten Commandments aren't about 'church' or 'religion'.
Not even the first three? I think you're violating 1 and 2 just by saying that.

What about the societies in, say, China and Japan, which somehow managed to stagger forward without those rules?
What about societies like, say, Haiti, which, despite being overwhelmingly Christian, is the worst country in the western hemisphere in which to live?
