China's birth rate
https://www.dw.com/en/chinas-birth-rate-falls-to-historic-low/
News: China's birthrate falls to historic low.
Quick solution: ban abortion...
Longer-term solution: encourage the free spread of worldviews such as the Bible's worldview, which say that children are a blessing and a treasure... (i.e. stop shutting down churches and putting innocent Christians in jail)

blame guns?
Important interview from Dr. Eric Wallace, Chicago pastor, about gun violence.
https://crev.info/2018/08/pastor-blames-crime-evolution/
Excerpt:
"We need to change the hearts and minds of those folks who are committing these crimes. And they want to talk about gun violence as if the guns are running around and shooting people. It’s people shooting people, and we need to be able to minister to them and get them to have a heart transplant, if you will, through the power of the Holy Spirit."- 11:09 pm

Sam Harris stumbles upon some truth
Good quote from atheist Sam Harris: "The true fault-line in our culture runs between those who believe that there is such a thing as truth and those who believe that there are only expedient lies."

Related: Steve Fuller on "Post-Truth", knowledge as a power game... according to the worldview of our postmodern friends.
https://evolutionnews.org/2018/07/sociologist-how-id-foxes-can-beat-the-darwinian-lions/By contrast, Jesus believed that truth is objective, and metaphorically claimed to be "The Truth"... "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me." John 14:6
"For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice." John 18:37- 11:11 pm
