[Vision2020] Religious Diversity Education

[Melynda Huskey]

By an amazing coincidence, I just finished reading an opinion piece which 
has some bearing on this matter, and which the interested may find here:

Boston Phoenix, June 6-12, 2003

It's called "Arabian night sweats," and it considers some of the current 
religious right's interest in, and evangelization of, Islam-- "The old 
Orientalism, with its vicarious sense of erotic thrill in the alien,
was bad enough.  But in the hands the religious right, the sexualization of 
Islam is downright dangerous."

Best,

Melynda Huskey


Go, said the bird, for the leaves were full of children,
Hidden excitedly, containing laughter.
Go, go, go, said the bird: human kind
Cannot bear very much reality.
Burnt Norton, T.S. Eliot
