It appears that a public figure who willingly committed and supported acts of violence is not fit to speak at a Catholic university. Ayers, whose actions are certainly deplorable, never intentionally supported the destruction of innocent human life. Needless to say, a public figure who actively supports the destruction of innocent human life would be even more unfit to speak at a Catholic university, let alone receive an award from one.

Unless, of course, that public figure happens to be president.

Dear Reader,

You have a decision to make: double or nothing.

For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.

In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.

So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?

Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
GIVE NOW
