Support First Things by turning your adblocker off or by making a  donation. Thanks!

Pretty quiet day today, but here’s what we have.

At Postmodern Conservative , PETER LAWLER still thinks the government shutdown is dumb , in a blog post that is sadly CAPS -less.

Over at Peter Leithart’s blog, Leithart is writing about Byron , the Bible , and book biographies .

Finally, for your two On the Square posts of the day: Pete Spiliakos is still pondering the end of Breaking Bad , and John Leslie and Robert Lawrence Kuhn respond to Edward Feser’s review of their book, The Mystery of Existence: Why Is There Anything At All?

And that’s it! See you tomorrow.

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
