Cambridge Mass. Schools Will Close for Muslim Holiday Beginning 2011

Posted by genglish on April 20th, 2011 and filed under Jewish Holidays | No Comments »

Cambridge schools already close for some Christian and Jewish holidays, and McGovern said he believes Muslims should be treated equally.

“The issue that sort of came up was should we celebrate any religious holidays, but there was not the will to take away Good Friday or one of the jewish holidays,” he said. “So I said, if that is the case, I think we have an obligation to celebrate one of the Muslim holidays, as well.”

He said, “It just didn’t seem right that we would close for two of those religions (Christian & Jewish), but not for the third.”

(IMO-It is appropriate we don’t close for the third “religion” (ideology) because we are a Christian nation, not Islamic. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think Saudi Arabia celebrates even one Christian holiday or doesn’t even allow a Christian church to be built, along with allowing Bibles in the country?)

Sukkot: Back to Basics

Posted by genglish on April 14th, 2011 and filed under Jewish Holidays | 25 Comments »

Sukkot is the happiest Jewish holiday. We live in huts, have parties, wave a lulav and etrog around and eat tons of food. What could be wrong with that?

King Solomon stars in the book of Ecclesiastes, which can get kind of gloomy. And we read it during Sukkot!

Hadara Levin-Areddy, a great Israeli singer/songwriter, connects the dots, singing about sadness, joy, and what’s new under the sun.
