But a whole year with a different kind of obligation - to myself and family first, rather than to students - will be a blessing. And I hope interesting for blog readers too. bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09122791819498272634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-667348909154981284.post-79546460012747764902017-10-06T13:49:10.806-07:002017-10-06T13:49:10.806-07:00Good for you Beth.

But I wrote to tell her that if she continued to demonize Muslims, I'd remove her blog. I understand; France has been terribly wounded by violent Islamic extremists. But I do not condone hatred of an entire religion because of the reprehensible actions of a few loathsome madmen. Juliet thinks I am naive and foolish, and perhaps I am. And I said I thought she was at risk of seeming racist and xenophobic. bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09122791819498272634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-667348909154981284.post-41073941651004363022017-10-05T02:46:26.331-07:002017-10-05T02:46:26.331-07:00I always looked forward to reading the blog from P...I always looked forward to reading the blog from Paris that was linked to yours but no longer see it.
