All over the world, there is increasing alarm over the ageing and falling populations of developed nations. Demographers, economists and now even some far-sighted politicians are becoming increaisingly worried about the looming "demographic winter". Various countries, including Hungary, Russia, Japan and South Korea, are experimenting with various incentives to encourage women to have more children, with varied degrees of success.
The latest statistics out of the USA, however, tell us that one measure has a rapid and certain impact: Resitricting or banning abortion leads to more children being born. It's not exactly rocket science, but the reluctance of mainstream media and decision-makers to admit this simple fact makes it important to look at the reality.
Bible sales are booming in Britain, thanks to an increased interest among Generation Z, say publishers.
Christian publisher SPCK has reported an increase in Bible sales of 87 per cent between 2019 and 2024, and identified it as a generational culture shift.A survey by OnePoll in January found that 62 percent of 18 to 24-year-olds identified as “very” or “fairly” spiritual, compared to 35 per cent of people over 65.
While some of this reflects the growing number of young Muslims in the country, it is clear that indigenous youngsters ar turning back to the Christian faith of our forefathers as well.
A spokeswoman for Nielsen Book Data reported that spending on religious books in total last year was £25.2 million – “up 3 per cent year-on-year”.
The Chief Executive of SPCK Sam Richardson said these figures showed that “we are at the centre of a significant cultural shift regarding matters of faith and religion”.
He added that events such as the Covid-19 pandemic and the mental health crisis had made people “think deeply about their spirituality” and want to “draw their own conclusions by reading Christian books in general and the Bible in particular”.
The Bible Society said that the sales for its youth edition of the Good News Bible have almost doubled since 2021, making it “by far our most popular”.
Bible Society Head of Communications Mark Woods, noted the “very clear increase in demand”. He said: “This seems to arise from a perception that the Bible has something important to say to young people, and from a desire to make it accessible to them.”
Josh Green, leader of the GenZeal project, stated: “There’s a change happening in our nation, so don’t for one second think about giving up.
“I also hope we are inspired to call young people deeper. When we give young people an opportunity to wholeheartedly follow Jesus, the evidence shows they’re ready to rise to a high bar.”
This is sure to help shift the new generation further towards a pro-life position.
The NHS has spent at least £250 million on transgender procedures for children and adults in England in the last five years, it has been reported.
According to The Mail on Sunday, Freedom of Information requests reveal that during the first ten months of 2024-25 the figure was £88 million — 20 per cent higher than in all the previous twelve months.
The data does not include the cost of surgical procedures for three years, or any costs involving the prescription of cross-sex hormones, meaning the estimated total figure for NHS spending on trans procedures is over £100 million a year.
At least £48 million was used on adult ‘sex-change’ surgeries such as mastectomies over the last two years, while the amount spent on children’s non-surgical procedures rocketed 50 per cent from £17.5 million in 2023-24, to £26.5 million in 2024-25 up to January.
Stephanie Davies-Arai, founder and Director of Transgender Trend, stated: “NHS England’s job is to treat medical problems yet they are creating medical problems where none previously existed.
“To spend so much on damaging people’s bodies for no evidenced reason is unacceptable and in the case of children unconscionable.”
Director of Campaigns for Sex Matters Fiona McAnena agreed, adding: “£250 million is an obscene amount for the NHS to spend on experimental and often dangerous surgeries for people who want to look more like the opposite sex.”
