Happy Friday! Here’s what you should read before you disappear into the weekend:
At Postmodern Conservative , Peter Lawler is thinking about Strauss and Burke.
Peter Leithart is reading about: Kant on aliens , modernism , loving life , Nelson Mandela , sophiology , and the fall of man.
Dr. Boli had a mournful Repeal Day .
Here at First Thoughts , Philip Cary continues his thoughts on Genesis (joined by Greg Forster here ). David Mills mourns the passing of Edward Oakes and provides two views on Pope Francis.
And On the Square today, Peter Leithart writes about the reason for the season, while Menachem Wecker visits an unusual graveyard .
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.
