John UK wrote: The second commandment is: Exodus 20:4-6 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image†, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them††, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

†† To have knelt with grief before our slain Lord in His mother's arms would have been expected for a Christian witness to the crucifixion. But a Christian to kneel in profound grief before Michelangelo's carved la Pieta (merely representing the slain Lord in His mother's arms) is not okay?
If these are improbable, then only the Muhammadan has found a way to break-free from idolatry. Speaking of breaking something, don't let a Muhammadan nor a fundamentalist with a hammer near your Michelangelo.
