The hierarchy's 50-member administrative board argued that public education should stress the traditional Christian virtue of abstinence from sex apart from marriage, along with avoidance of intravenous drug use, as the best and morally correct method of containing the AIDS epidemic. But, it acknowledged, in a pluralistic society some people will simply not accept such strictures.
