Jesus had his sights set on heavenly things and knew that this life is insignificant to the afterlife. So in that vain, he was more interested in people being obedient in whatever state they found themselves instead of trying to change society.
In all truth, it's probably easier for a slave to seek God's face than a slave owner.

The entire thread was meant to be a lighthearted jab at the entire statues issue.
I by no means interpret this passage as a blanket ban on all statues, paintings, photographs, etc.

Ugh. The religious right is a huge reason why I don't consider myself a republican.

Graven Image - a carved idol or representation of a god used as an object of worship.

This particular quote is in direct reference to the first commandment.
