NO TO THE TEN SUGGESTIONS

American newscaster, Ted Koppel, some time ago said on ABC’s Nightline:

“We have actually convinced ourselves that slogans will save us: “Shoot up if your must, but use a clean needle.” Or “Enjoy sex whenever and with whomever you wish, but protect yourself.”

“No! The answer is no! Not because it isn’t cool or smart or because you wind up in jail or dying in the AIDS ward, but because it’s wrong!

“What Moses brought down from Mount Sinai were not the Ten Suggestions, but the Ten Commandments!”
