I just found Mr. Hitchens' update on the 10 Commandments for today's world.
1. Do not condemn people on the basis of their ethnicity or color.
2. Do not ever even think of using people as private property.
3 Despise those who use violence or the threat of it in sexual relations.
4. Hide your face and weep if you dare to harm a child.
5. Do not condemn people for their inborn nature.
6. Be aware that you too are an animal.
7. Don't imagine that you can escape judgement if you rob people with a false prospectus.
8. Turn off that fucking cell phone.
9. Denounce all jihadists and crusaders for what they are: Psychopathic criminals with ugly delusions.
10. Be willing to denounce any god or any faith if any holy commandment should contradict any of the above.
