You are deceiving us. That is not what Catholics are taught. I have a Catholic Catechism which gives the first commandment as, “I am the Lord thy God; thou shalt not have strange gods before me.” You cut out the reference to images.

In the first place, if we wished to deceive our people, we would be very foolish to give them the full wording of the commandment in the Douay Version of the Bible, where they could detect the deliberate distortion! In the second place, in the Catechism we give the full substantial sense of the words I have quoted, but in a brief and summarized form which can be easily memorized.
