“We call it the Ganges. She takes away your sickness, your pain, your suffering.”
– That’s Madan Padarat, talking not about the actual Ganges River in India, but Jamaica Bay, in Brooklyn and Queens. Local Hindus have been performing religious rituals along the Queens shores, under the takeoff path of planes from Kennedy Airport. These rituals involve the throwing of objects like...

thenewfilo:
When many Muslims are confronted with this question or topic, they tend to get uncomfortable and change the subject.

And I asked, “Well, what do you think about the 8th grader who was shot in California by another student after he asked him to be his Valentine?” Then of...
