Could anything be more un-American than the Second Commandment's warning that "I Yahweh, thy God, am a jealous god, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation. "? Not even the Common Law would have hung a man because his grandfather had stolen a horse!
