Christopher Hitchens

This quote was added by sailor
Is it too modern to notice that there is nothing [in the ten commandments] about the protection of children from cruelty, nothing about rape, nothing about slavery, and nothing about genocide? Or is it too exactingly "in context" to notice that some of these very offenses are about to be positively recommended?

Don't kill. Don't steal. Don't commit adultery. Or how about the summary of the commandments: Love your neighbor as yourself.

So, you want to try that again, Chris?
