Philadelphia Abortion Crime not Murder, Says Movie Producer

Contact: Trisha Ramos, 800-437-1893


LOS ANGELES, Oct. 28, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- Ray Comfort, the producer of the viral pro-life movie “180,” in commenting on the alleged murders of seven babies at a Philadelphia abortion clinic, said that the workers crime wasn’t murder. AP reported, October 27th “Two abortion clinic workers pleaded guilty Thursday to third-degree murder in deaths that occurred at a Philadelphia clinic where seven babies were allegedly born alive, then killed with scissors, and a patient died from an overdose of painkillers.”


Comfort said, “These people are accused of ‘performing illegal late-term abortions and killing babies born alive by severing their spinal cords with scissors’ when the workers ‘had no relevant training or license.’ So in essence, their crime wasn’t murder. It was that they weren’t trained to kill unborn babies. The law says that abortions should be safe and legal, and without proper training on how to kill a child, the law is broken. That was their ‘crime.’”
Comfort added that the billion dollar abortion industry in America has been “a powerful and taunting Goliath, but we now have a stone in our sling with ‘180,’ and we are going to see an end to this horror in our nation.” He said that they are receiving thousands of emails and many are saying that their minds have been changed from pro-abortion to pro-life, simply by freely watching the 33-minute documentary at 180movie.com

“I’m a senior at a public high school in West Virginia. This past week in our civics class we were writing essays about laws that we wish would change in America. After seeing this video I choose to do mine on abortion, and how I wished it would be illegal. After I had finished reading my essay, a discussion arose in class (obviously) about how they thought abortion should be a choice, especially if the child is unhealthy or was caused because of rape…Because of 180 I was able to turn around the entire class opinion about abortion and by the end of the class 25 of the 25 students and my teacher as well had all raised their hand agreeing that abortion should be illegal.”

"180" Movie Reject: One Student Hands an Open Copy Back to Me. Watch Why...

200,000 Copies of “180” Given Away at 100 Universities

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA A small army of one thousand workers gave away 200,000 copies of the award-winning movie “180” at 100 top universities around the country, in one day this week. To avoid opposition, the day and the location of each of the universities were a highly-guarded secret. The controversial prolife video shows eight people who are adamantly pro-abortion, changing their minds and becoming pro-life in a matter of seconds, because they were asked one question. Within the first month on YouTube http://www.180movie.com/ clocked 1.2 million views, stirred up a hornet’s nest of more than 19,000 comments, and has been called “The Hottest Movie on the Internet.”

The film’s producer, Ray Comfort, said, “People can’t get enough of this because it’s changing minds about the hot-button issue of abortion. It’s not only being watched on line, people are buying it to give away. We have sold more than 150,000 copies in a matter of weeks. One small church purchased 16,800. But this week’s university giveaway was very special, because it put the physical DVD into the hands of the youth of America, and engaged many in healthy dialogue.”

Tony Miano, the coordinator of the massive giveaway said, “Emails have been pouring in from students around the country who not only took the DVD, but took the time to watch it.“ ‎

"I just was on campus and a friend of mine and I watched this video and in a matter of seconds both of us realized how important the topics in this document truly where. I never really put things into focused until I watched this video. I have a lot of questions and now I'm taking the time to seek answers."

“I was given this DVD as I walked to class. I came home, popped it in, and it changed my heart. I got to thinking about every question that was asked and I have always been undecided on abortion, but now I am anti-abortion all the way.”

“Powerful movie. I always told myself I would never have an abortion, but what other women did was their business…I have COMPLETELY changed my mind now. Abortion is murder, it should be illegal.”

“I was handed the 180 DVD while walking to class on my college campus…It made me not only think of the issue in a way I hadn't before, it made me think of the issue to begin with.…Identifying as "pro-life" was one of the last things my thankful heart could commit to. Now that I've watched this simple DVD, I'm finally able to say I'm Pro-life and really mean it!!”

“My professor x-nayed the entire lesson and is playing the DVD for the entire class... She said she got so excited when she saw the DVD. She said that it coincides with what she teaches in class (the class title is ‘the holocaust’)”

Comfort added, “I am so thankful that people are open to change. While there are some who are very angry at us for making this movie, others are very thankful and write to tell us their story.”
"We both [my husband and I] voted for a pro-choice president the last election. After watching this documentary he said to me in tears that he was wrong. We have had our minds changed about who we vote for."

“I was at an abortion clinic on the sidewalk (with my laptop), had two young ladies stop and watch the trailer that is in the special features. Then afterwards they watched the 180 DVD all the way through. One was four month's pregnant, the other was three. They were both going there for an abortion; they were both in tears, hugged my neck and decided to give their babies life and choose adoption instead. I cried too.”

The best-selling author and film producer concluded, “I will not rest as long as the horror of killing babies is a legal reality in our nation. But political change will only come if those who care about the unborn speak up. We created the ‘180 Course’ to help those who care confidentially talk about the subject, in a way that makes sense. Anyone can change someone’s mind about abortion as I did on ‘180,’ if they have a loving heart and if they are willing to learn a few simple principles.” Well-known Christian leaders Randy Alcorn and Kay Arthur also contributed to the course, which is available at http://www.heartchanger.com/

Gospel Message on Toothpicks. What?!

"Thank you for calling Living Waters. This is Trisha, how can I help you?"
"Ah yes, I'd like to submit a tract idea." The deep voice on the other end responded.
"Sure, go right ahead, sir." I answered.
"I'd like to see a Gospel message on toothpicks."
"Hmmm." I mumbled.
The caller continued, "That way people can get the Gospel message when they leave the restaurant".
"Hmmm...that's interesting, sir." I responded and added, "How are you going to get the message on the toothpicks?" I inquired.
He answered, "With my TEETH!"
Then the voice broke out into laughter and right away I knew who it was.
"E.Z!!!! I can't believe you!!!" I yelled. "You got me!!!...You got me!!"

(E.Z. is the Vice President of Living Waters. I love working for people that can have this much fun at work. I can remember one caller that sounded like it was E.Z. and I almost said "Come on E.Z....I know it's you!" I'm glad I never did because it was a legitimate customer).

"A joyful heart is good medicine, But a broken spirit dries up the bones." Prov 17:22

This just in to Living Waters...

This is just in from one of the staff members at Living Waters (named Mike). Here's what he wrote:

WOW this is awesome fellow servants. I am coming from lunch stopped at a red light in the rain. Lady next to me is honking and motioning for me to roll down my window. She had seen the 180 decal on our back window. She tells me with tears in her eyes...

"Thank you guys so much for putting out that documentary, I am a new Christian. I just watched it yesterday with my children to show them the real side and facts of abortion and we got in a lengthy discussion afterwards. That documentary is changing lives. Thank you so much"

God Bless
Mike

The one time I wish I had 5 thumbs...

I would put them all up for this film!
Do your family a favor this weekend and take them to see "Courageous". If you saw the film, tell me your favorite part. I know, I know...it will be hard to choose. But I'll start us off. I loved the part with Javier in the back of the cop car. Hilarious. "Courageous".
