Sign of the times of the day:

Finally, a way to indulge in two of America’s favorite obsessions: donating to find cures for diseases and engaging in behavior that causes health problems. If only they could have found a way to squeeze in one of our third obsessions (i.e., irritation at the food safety nannyists that incessantly harp on the fact that drinking Diet Coke by the barrel may not be such a great idea [Note to wife: Yes, dear, I’m talking about you]) then this picture would be perfect.

Dear Reader,

While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.

Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?

Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.

How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.

Make your year-end gift now using this secure link or the button below.
