The Nicaragua Grand Canal project is funded by a Hong Kong businessman who is adamant that the Chinese government not be involved in the project. Given the participation of China’s government in all aspects of life, this is unusual. The $50-billion cost estimate for the project, which is due for completion in the early 2020s, is four times the size of the entire Nicaraguan economy. Exactly who is financially backing the project is unclear, but Nicaragua’s president signed on the plan with alacrity and scarcely a glance at the 30,000 people who may be required to move from their lands. The canal will split the country in two and six municipalities will find themselves divided. There will be only one bridge across the canal along its entire length. The president argues the project will bring tens of thousands of jobs and much-needed investment and revenue to the second-poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. — Tim Marshall

Every soul, then, by reason of its birth, has its nature in Adam until it is born again in Christ; moreover, it is unclean all the while that it remains without this regeneration; and because unclean, it is actively sinful, and suffuses even the flesh (by reason of their conjunction) with its own shame. — Tertullian
