A crisis looms in China as 18 million men want wives and the women don’t exist because of forced abortion, female infanticide, and other eugenic actions resulting from China’s one child policy. From the story in the Guardian:China is planning to tighten punishments for sex-selective abortions amid concerns that its widening gender imbalance will lead to wife trafficking, sexual crimes and social frustration.
Too la-aate. The deeds were done, the girl babies were killed, and the consequences will be paid.
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.
