Quote of the Day

From the New York Times Online:

QUOTATION OF THE DAY

"A girl is just not as good as a son. It doesn’t matter how much money you have. If you don’t have a son, you are not as good as other people who have one."SU QINGCAI, a tea farmer in China who paid $3,500 for a 5-year-old boy.

And folks...this is part of what is wrong with our world. And to think we live in the 21st Century. Sometimes I wonder how we ever made it out of the middle ages to where we are today.

And to add to the above quote is a video about the children being kidnapped in China to fill the needs of people like this guy:
Video: China’s Kidnapped Children

Thousands of Chinese children have been kidnapped and sold for profit in a crime authorities seem unable or unwilling to stop.
