LETTER: Make the Mass accessible
Travis Heine’s recent column argued that the upcoming changes to the Roman Catholic mass are for the better. I’m not so sure — as a Roman Catholic, I think the changes sound pretty horrid.
LETTER: Slifka's disgraced guest
The Slifka Center disgraced itself by presenting a talk by Israeli philopsher Asa Kasher. According to Ha’aretz columnist Amos Harel, Israeli soldiers tactics in Gaza in the winter attack of 2008-09 were based in part on “ethical theory” developed by Kasher.
LETTER: The philosophy of military ethics
Professor Kasher portrayed that while fighting terrorists is indeed a messy undertaking, Israel takes this task seriously because it is a core of what Israel — or any other democracy — must do to fulfill its obligation to protect the lives of its citizens.
LETTER: An alderman to be proud of
I owe belated thanks to Saybrook College Dean Paul McKinley for deciding in the summer of 2007 to place Mike Jones ’11 and me in the same cramped suite in Lanman-Wright Hall.
LETTER: An alderman’s role
Colin Ross’s recent column (“Candidates neglect policing,” Oct. 26) was frustrating to read.
LETTER: Beyond public image
Ross’ criticism of Sarah Eidelson ’12 as lacking tenacity unfairly overlooks Sarah’s commitment to fighting for change and opposing establishment power.
LETTER: Interpreting rightly
Regrettably, Mr. Graver did not read what I wrote but instead read relativism into an essay which was not written by a relativist.
LETTER: Uncovering the anonymity of Palestinian prisoners
On Friday, Hana Awwad asked us to join her in lamenting the lack of Wikipedia entries for 10 specific Palestinian prisoners who were released in the recent Israeli hostage-Palestinian criminal exchange and called on us to celebrate them.
LETTER: Yale's monkey friends
It is appalling that the Yale Daily News would refer to vervet monkeys as “Yale’s newest collaborators.”
