I've just posted a review of Countryman's Dirt, Greed, and Sex: sexual ethics in the New Testament and their implications for today (that's a DreamWidth link; it's also on LiveJournal).

And on another topic, Abd el-Kader and the Massacre of Damascus may also be of interest:

[...] rioters were running amok, burning homes and slaughtering Christians.

And at that moment, Abd el-Kader, the man who had led his Muslim people in a war against Christian invaders for 15 years, knew what he had to do. [...]

All afternoon of July 10 [1860], Abd el-Kader plunged into the chaos of the Christian quarter with his two sons shouting: "Christians, come with me! I am Abd el-Kader, son of Muhi al-Din, the Algerian... Trust me. I will protect you."
