Saturday Reading on Immigration, Religion, Sex and Vampires

While I am at it, I thought I would post the links to two interesting articles in today’s New York Times. First, a fascinating story about the intersection of the pastoral and the political, as illegal immigrants seek refuge in a Roman Catholic Church in Iowa.

Second, Gail Collins wrote an interesting commentary about youth, sex, gender and society after reading a high school, romance, vampire novel by a Mormon stay-at-home mom. For a better discussion of chastity and sexuality, however, I would recommend Lauren Winner's book, Real Sex: The Naked Truth About Chastity
