The moon and me
By
Helen Maryles Shankman
Hundreds of campers gazed in wonderstruck silence, mesmerized by the impossible sight of astronauts bouncing over the cratered, powdery surface
Yaakov Jaffe
We’ll perform a Jewish divorce in a Starbucks if we have to
The Beth Din of America has helped hurting couples sever ties in stranger locations. It’s a mitzvah and a worthy cause
Joe Hyman
I survived abusive religious ‘conversion’ therapy
Rabbis must shift gears and tell LGBTQ+ Jews that their lives matter, before it’s too late
Malka Himelhoch
Jewish women suffer under Israel’s theocracy
Thousands of citizens are trapped in unwanted, unsafe marriages due to a biased rabbinical court. They deserve better
Avi Shafran
Israel is no violent theocracy
Ultra-Orthodox harassment of the secular is rude, to be sure, but it’s not sanctioned by the government — a key point that should be in the Pew report
Naomi Chazan
Jerusalem: Better shared
As the summer drags on and elections heat up, the city will simmer until it welcomes all its citizens
Mort Laitner
’Your dad gave us the will to live’
My father was a male Scheherazade, but it took a couple of his old friends to tell the story that helped me understand his life
Jay Rosen

Late adopters
By
David Sedley
In the clash between traditionalists and innovators, those who adapt to the new reality are more likely to succeed — just ask the silent film stars (Matot)
Top Ops
Emily B. Landau
Iran has somewhat complied with its nuclear deal

Alon Tal
Balancing religious freedom and respect for tradition IS doable
Just because Blue and White is a centrist party does not mean it is timid, wishy-washy, or paralyzed by its moderate inclinations
Daniel Markind
Trump, Pelosi, and the fire they play with
The leadership on both sides has been intentionally divisive on questions of race, giving no heed to the risk of fanning those flames of prejudice
Wendy Singer
‘Mechina’ — as worthy an Israeli export as drip irrigation
These pre-army academies are training a new generation of enterprising, resilient, purpose-driven youth, who figure out how to serve society
David May
Belfast’s power vacuum leads to Titanic BDS troubles
The Belfast city council, which should be focused on local municipal issues, may embarrass Northern Ireland with its foray into Mideast conflicts
Sagi Melamed
What would Mom do?
More than a list of Do’s and Don’ts, parenting is the moral values instilled in children through the actions of those who raise them
