Losing Moses On The Freeway

The 10 Commandments In America

BY CHRIS HEDGES

Brief Description:
This is an impassioned, eloquent call to heed the wisdom of the 10 Commandments. Celebrated for his courageous reporting on the crucial issues of our time, Hedges, who graduated from seminary at Harvard Divinity School, explores the challenge of living according to these moral precepts we have tried to follow, often unsuccessfully, for the past 6,000 years. The commandments, he writes, do not save us from evil. Instead they save us from committing evil. It is in the self-sacrifice championed by the commandments that integrity, commitment, and, finally, love are made possible.
