...utter two words - "suspended sentence" - Israel's Attorney General Menahem Mazuz went from being the country's most respected lawman to a reviled and misunderstood figure. For months, Mazuz, a workaholic of Old Testament rigor, had gathered testimony alleging that Israel's President Moshe Katsav was a serial sex offender. Now Mazuz is under fire for seeking a plea bargain for Israel's ceremonial head of state instead of attempting to prosecute him for allegedly committing rape. On June 30, 20,000 people gathered in a Tel Aviv square to demand the resignation of Mazuz, with the special fury that...
...Williams' response to the scripture's stance on homosexuality is particularly instructive. He said, "It's impossible to get from Scripture anything straightforwardly positive about same-sex relationships." The Bible states that all such relationships are wrong. When one comes to the Christian faith, one is expected to work at becoming more like Christ, not to mold Christ to fit one's beliefs. The Archbishop would not have had to deal with this crisis if he had been sincere enough to follow Jesus Christ's teachings, as clearly stated in the Bible. Bukola Apantaku, LEICESTER, ENGLAND...
...Bible presents God's stance on same-sex relationships from the very beginning: God did not create two Adams or two Eves but one of each. Archbishop Peter Akinola of Nigeria got it right, regardless of his being considered "archconservative" in your article. The following are not his words, but God's: "Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable" (Leviticus 18: 22 and 20: 13). If the Anglican community seriously considers that same-sex relationships are a matter open for discussion, then the Bible should be modified. Since the Word...
...educated classes, Shi'ite-Sunni unions were not frowned upon. It was even possible to date: in Baghdad, courting couples, often accompanied by a chaperone, would meet at fruit-juice kiosks or ice-cream parlors or in one of the restaurants along the banks of the Tigris. Premarital sex was rare, but the more adventurous lovers would arrange trysts in the city's quiet nooks. One popular spot was a concrete expanse near the Jadhariya bridge sometimes used by driving instructors; there, under the pretense of teaching his girlfriend to use a stick shift, a young man could furtively hold...
...dives into a splashy dream world for a parade of marching umbrellas, refrigerators and giant dolls that is as grand as it is eerie. Rambunctious comedy? Mike Reiss and Xeth Feinberg's Queer Duck is at least as rude as Knocked Up and yards funnier, whether its titular same-sex mallard is waddling up to the bar to order "a slow comfortable screw up against the wall of a bus station in Passaic, New Jersey," or enduring a spot of gay-bashing in an episode (from the 3min. filmettes on which the feature is based) called "Ku Klux Klan...
