Scientists are using bluegill fish to screen water for toxins and are developing methods by which bees and cockroaches will help with airline security. As I often say, never under estimate the imagination and abilities of scientists.

Just don’t tell PETA. It thinks fish should not be kept in tanks. It has also protested cruelty to cockroaches, and has called the brood of insects, “children.”

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
