To all those, I say not ‘may you be well and have boys’ but rather ‘may you be miserable and suffer plagues and AIDS, you perverts!’” Miller writes that the article “has sparked a flurry of condemnations by Arab civil society, shining a light on a usually suppressed debate on gay rights.” Khatib’s comments quickly drew fire from Israeli Arabs on social media, who attacked both the style and content o…

Trick or….Bible: Christians Coping with Halloween

By Maxwell Grant

…ral narrative of modern Halloween continues to engage this question. So many communities have tried to de-fang Halloween by trick-or-treating only in daylight, or in explicitly self-contained environments like shopping malls or blocked off streets with an army of adult supervision, lest any genuine evil intrude. It’s an odd thing to try to control a holiday that emphasizes our lack of control, and to keep evil pleasantly fictional by insulating ou…
