I get so confused. We are told that suicide is a right, even for the mentally ill. Then, we hear that doctors should monitor their depressed patients for suicidal ideation. From the Medical News Today story:
After receiving a small number of complaints that criticized GPs for failing to appreciate that a patient represented a suicide risk, GPs are being advised to ensure they regularly assess patients with depression for risk of suicide.
Unless they have cancer? Like I said, I get so confused.
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.
