Splendid. From the story:
After a sober and emotional debate, the Idaho Senate on Friday passed a bill making assisted suicide a felony punishable by 5 years in prison on a 31-2 vote Friday.
But note, if you hit the link, how the story focuses mostly on the reasons a senator voted no, and didn’t bother to present one argument given by any senator for passing the bill! So, the arguments of 31 senators aren’t worth the weight of 1 negative vote—who spoke emotionally. Typical.
Most of the media’s focus goes to proposals promoting legalization. But little attention is ever paid to reasons for opposing assisted suicide, when legislative proposals lose, or to likely victories against the agenda, such as this.
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.
