In case you missed it in print, the October First Things is now available online in its entirety at no charge (click here for the table of contents). Inside are correspondence on Gilbert Meilaender’s review of Crunchy Cons , "The Diplomacy of Religious Freedom," and lawsuits brought against the Church. Then there are opinion pieces: Hadley Arkes on abortion and the Supreme Court, and an account of Leszek Kolakowski. Meanwhile, Stephen H. Webb reviews My Life Among the Deathworks , while Stephen M. Barr reviews The Creation by Edward O. Wilson. Father Neuhaus, as always, has much to say about pretty much everything in the Public Square.

First Things does not hesitate to call out what is bad. Today, there is much to call out. Yet our editors, authors, and readers like you share a greater purpose. And we are guided by a deeper, more enduring hope.
