Day’s Verse:
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by His powerful word.
Hebrews 1:3
~~~
“According to a study by David Gil (Violence Against Children, Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1970) only 0.4 percent of abused children were abused by adoptive parents. Since at least 2 percent of the children in the United States are adopted (Encyclopedia of Social Work, National Association of Social Workers, New York, 1977), that means the rate of abuse by biological parents is five times that of adoptive parents.” If anybody can actually figure out how 0.4%, 2% and five times as many relate to each other in the context of this passage, you win a prize.
