    You mean like Abraham?

    Some time after the birth of Isaac, Abraham was commanded by God to offer his son up as a sacrifice in the land of Moriah. The patriarch traveled three days until he came to the mount that God taught him. He commanded the servant to remain while he and Isaac proceeded alone to the mountain, Isaac carrying the wood upon which he would be sacrificed. Along the way, Isaac repeatedly asked Abraham where the animal for the burnt offering was. Abraham then replied that God would provide one. Just as Abraham was about to sacrifice his son, he was prevented by an angel, and given on that spot a ram which he sacrificed in place of his son.

• • Starting My Foreign Language Class on Tuesday: Chinese (Mandarin)

  • China : some facts,over the next decade some 40 million Chinese men will be unable to find a woman or a wife for that matter....Vary serious implications,,,, social up he-val is what i see coming.

    A slew of reports have confirmed the disturbing demographic trend.

    In a 2002 survey conducted in a central China village, more than 300 of the 820 women had abortions and more than a third of them admitted they were trying to select their baby's sex.
    According to a report by the International Planned Parenthood Federation, the vast majority of aborted fetuses, more than 70 percent, were female, citing the abortion of up to 750,000 female fetuses in China in 1999.
    A report by Zhang Qing, population researcher of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said the gender imbalance is "statistically related to the high death rate of female babies, with female death rate at age zero in the city or rural areas consistently higher than male baby death rate." Only seven of China's 29 provinces are within the world's average sex ratio. Zhang Qing's report cited eight "disaster provinces" from North to South China, where there were 26 to 38 percent more boys than girls.
    In the last census in 2000, there were nearly 19 million boys more than girls in the 0-15 age group. "We have to act now or the problem will become very serious," said Peking University sociologist Prof. Xia Xueluan. He cited the need to strengthen social welfare system in the countryside to weaken the traditional preference for boys.
     

    wait rises real fast usally falls real fast.

    The traditional thinking is best described in the ancient "Book of Songs" (1000-700 B.C.):

    "When a son is born,
    Let him sleep on the bed,
    Clothe him with fine clothes,
    And give him jade to play...
    When a daughter is born,
    Let her sleep on the ground,
    Wrap her in common wrappings,
    And give broken tiles to play..."
