Exodus 20:4 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:

Recognizing the historical significance of a statue is NOT worshiping it.

Another person who doesn't understand that commandment.
It is about making images to worship, not about anything else.

People aren't worshiping these statues.

Or this one...Ephesians 6:5
5 Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear and sincerity of heart, just as you would show to Christ. 6And do this not only to please them while they are watching, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart

All though I do agree with you, this passage says nothing about worship.

I understand it completely. It was a joke.

Graven means carved, but good try!

I think one needs to understand Ancient Hebrew and/or Greek to see how the passage doesn't quite come across in English. I know of specific ones, especially in the NT, where the translation is poorer in English because we don't have equivalent words.

It depends on the translation.
graven image: a carved idol or representation of a god used as an object of worship.

Historical markers are not worshipping statues. This thread is ridiculous.

What about gargoyles on cathedrals? I guess those Catholics will burn!

I do know the bible says that women should keep their mouths shut.
