And of course, pointing out there is currently no such commandment isn't going to deter a single one of them from doing it.
Don't be ungenerous, vorlon. They cherry pick because of -- what's that learned word? -- exejesus . . . exegenesis . . . exegesis . . . something like that. Remember, it's not intellectually dishonest if there's some sort of Greek-based word for it. They're scholars! Just ask them.
