I'm #listening to #redrising and no shade to the #literary craft of the series but I really #dislike the #roman #trope. It shows a lack of imagination in my #opinion. And I feel the same way about #suneater.

Judeo-Christian :fozzie_wocka_wocka:
"Among the many #faiths practiced by millions of #Texas #students, a new statewide required #reading list that includes #biblical passages draws from just two traditions: #Protestant #Christianity and #Judaism.
Yet Texas #rabbis say #Jews had no role in shaping how #Judaism appears in the #curriculum, and they disagree with how the lone #Jewish text is presented. Rather than teaching about Judaism on its own terms, they argue, the lessons filter Jewish texts through a #Christian perspective.
The #readinglist, which is expected to go into effect in 2030, will have #publicschool students across the state reading passages from the #NewTestament and mostly Christian #translations of the #Hebrew Bible alongside #literary classics. Of the curriculum’s six #HebrewBible readings, just one uses a Jewish #translation."

to wittenberg before he had
the east gate
was opened like an eye
and the morning’s early sun
that had risen from where it waited
its shining entered
the town like a tide -
