Circus
I was told to put my hand into a box containing ten snakes because I'm a Muslim woman and I believe in اللّٰه and His Messenger ﷺ, because one of the snakes is actually non-venomous, and because every believer does this challenge in this circus and they're all fine. I refused the challenge and walked away from the circus. People call me a kafir. -

An #article from 2012 on the #NewYorker. #Messianic movements, #allegory vs #politics, and the true, down-to-earth #meaning of #Revelation. (Plus, a lot of clumsy, heavy-handed metaphors.) 🙄
