How many mitzvot can dance on the head of a pin? The only point I ever had to make about the Alabama 10 Commandments controversy - which I made in several blog comment threads - is excellently laid out here. I'm sure Judge Roy Bean (or whatever his name is) doesn't even know there are more than one version.

This is an interesting solution - kind of a variation on the Noachide commandments.

Sort of related: Tyler Cowen reviews Kieslowski's Decalogue film series. I found all of those films engrossing and several of them very moving, and I would see the series again without hesitation.

UPDATE: How many Commandments are there, anyway?
