Former U.S. Surgeon General Koop

“Young people must be told the

truth...the best way to avoid AIDS is to refrain from sexual activity until as adults they are ready to establish a mutually faithful and monogamous relationship.”

92

Written on the Tomb of an Anglican Bishop in Westminster

Abby

"When I was young and free and my

imagination had no limits, I dreamed of

changing the world. As I grew older and

wiser, I discovered the world would not

change, so I shortened my sights

somewhat and decided to change only

my country.

But it, too, seemed immovable”

"As I grew into my twilight years, in one

last desperate attempt, I settled for

changing only my family, those closest to

me, but alas, they would have none of it.

"And now, as I lie on my deathbed, I

suddenly realize: If I had only changed

myself first, then by example I would

have changed my family.

"From their inspiration and

encouragement, I would then have been

able to better my country, and who knows,

I may have even changed the world."

God’s Commandment:

“ Do not eat the fruit… for on the

day you shall eat of it, you shall

surely die.” Genesis 2:7

Today’s Translation:

“ Do not commit sexual immorality… for

on the day you shall do it, you shall

surely die because of AIDS.”

Let us all Practice

ABSOLUTE SEX Ethics

“Purity before marriage and Fidelity within marriage”

The Pure Love Pledge

The pure relationship of love between a man

and a woman is a sacred gift from God, to be

cherished and honored, for the sake of building

a true family, a healthy society and a world of

peace for future Generations. Once that love is

consummated, it should never be broken.

Therefore, from this day forward, I commit

myself to:

•Respect and honor the ideal of purity in

myself and others.

•Practice pure love as a child, friend, spouse

and parent.

•Refrain from all sexual relationship before

marriage.

•Dedicate myself to absolute fidelity within

marriage.

•Encourage others to do the same.
