Why not display the original from the Torah? In the original Hebrew language?

Or at least display all three versions as written in the Protestant Bible.

Seems kind of silly though; it would make much more sense for Christians to display Deuteronomy 6:4-15, since that’s what Jesus stated was the greatest commandment.

Well, sure, if they weren't misrepresenting their motives. The real motive is indoctrination and the incorporation of a specific flavor of Christianity into all aspects of USAian society, transforming it into a theocracy. They're not particularly subtle about this. :)

The part they haven't appeared to think through is what subset of subset of Christianity are they going for. They could talk to the people in Salem, MA. about that, but they won't.
