Is this a tragedy? No. It appears to be the Plan, becoming more clear every day. "It is near" examines the evidence. Most Christian podcasts seem breathless in their self-defense of "the faith".

The origins of footbinding are lost in time, but I think it is safe to say that the first woman to do it could not possibly have imagined what was coming. This episode covers the earliest evidence (in the 1100s) through to the final demise of the practice in 1957. The historical records are heavy on hormone-inspired odes to beauty. They are relativ…
