Phenomenal pro-life television ads sponsored by Chilean government
Wow, if only…
Reader Keela forwarded me those amazing ads. I checked and they are part of a campaign launched by the Chilean government earlier this month to support and strengthen families called “Chile Crece Contigo,” or “Chile Grows with You.”
According to Sarah Crawford at TX Right to Life in a March 11 article spotlighting Chile for being given the 1st ever International Protect Life Award by the International Protect Life Committee of the United Nations:
Chile was commended for being Latin America’s most Pro-Life nation, as well as having the lowest maternal mortality rate in Latin America….
Abortion in Chile is illegal without exception and in a 2009 poll, 67% of Chileans identified themselves as Pro-Life….
The “Chile Crece Contigo” campaign is centered on the mother and the availability of pre-natal care throughout the pregnancy. The program is also in place to help the child from the moment of fertilization through the first few years after birth. It also promotes awareness that an unborn child is to be considered a member of the family and deserves necessary protection and care….
Abortion was legalized in Chile in the 1930s. That decision was overturned in 1967 and gave constitutional rights to the unborn children of Chile….
President [Sebastián] Piñera (pictured right) is well-known for his support of the unborn, and in an article in L’Osservatore Romano on March 3rd, the same day Piñera met with Pope Benedict XIV, he again stood up for life saying that “[Chile’s] democracy protects human rights, especially the right to Life from conception to natural death.”…
This is all encouraging news for many reasons, not the least of which is that here we see an example of an abortion-free country that promotes good prenatal care and is – as logic would anticipate – healthier and safer for pregnant mothers.
Also, we see in Chile yet another country, like Poland, that has overturned legalized abortion and been better for it.




Ha, tiny little rocking out! I love it. That is too cute.
Go Chile! Go Chile! Go Chile! God bless your country and your sweet children!
WOW! Wonderful videos! Oh Lord, hasten the day when the United States will follow in Chile’s footsteps and protect ALL of our children.
LOVE!!!
It also promotes awareness that an unborn child is to be considered a member of the family and deserves necessary protection and care.
What a wonderful message for the people of Chile to ponder. God bless President Sebastian Pinera!
Who knew that the United Nations had an International Protect Life Committee? Not I.
The second ad with the father reminded me of my sister’s “playing” with each of her 3 children while they were in utero. She would gently poke one side of her belly, and my nieces and nephew would respond with a kick (or elbow?) in that area, she’d move to another spot, & he or she would follow. She even demonstrated this to the amazed Ultrasound technician (at 20 weeks, they had already “learned” this—I know, I know, how can a “non-sentient” being do so? Must be reflexes, LOL.) Any big soccer fans would be pleased to know they can start training even before birth. Bravo, Chile, ¡ que triunfe la verdad!
BRAVO CHILE!!!! AWESOME!! LOVE THIS!!!!
How refreshing … at least someone has it right.
Klynn73, my son did that too when I was carrying him! I used to pat and he would kick where I patted. I thought it was something unique that MY baby did! lol. They are just unaware blobs of cells aren’t they?
Sexy pregnant woman rolling on the grass.
Baby rockin’
Too much, too cute!
BTW, can someone refresh mymmeory and name the artist and the song playing on the first ad?
I am going to say Back in Black by AC/DC.

Surely someone made a mistake you can’t have a law legalizing abortion and then have it overturned. :)
The Philippines has a constitutional protection for the unborn from the moment of conception, enshrined in our 1987 Constitution. There does not seem to be a threat of the law being changed soon. However, we are hoping and praying that this provision will convince our legislators not to pass a reproductive health bill into law, a law that could allow de facto abortions through government funding of abortifacient artificial contraceptives.
Looks like the Philipines and the Chileans and the Polish are the Irish are in the lead. Go pro-life USA! Lets ride the wave to 2012 and make this a pro-life nation. Outlaw abortion. It would Yin the Yang in Canada where pro-life speech is a hate crime.
Beautiful, just beautiful!!! :) :)
I can’t believe you translated the name of the country….
Caitlin, around here we call that a “typo.” As you can see elsewhere in the article, the country’s name is spelled correctly.
it’s not a “typo”…a typo would be when you mis-type something. she translated the name of the country and included it in the post
What are you referring to, Caitlin? “Chile” is the name of the country. I noticed a typo in one spot, “Chili.” Do you believe Jill thinks “Chili” is a “translation” of the name of the country, Chile?
I really do believe that she put it into a translation engine, and published the results, despite knowing that “Chile” is the name of a country. Again: not a typo.
On what planet is the proper name of “Chile” translated into the food “chili?” lol Caitlin – you’re just wrong here. It’s just hilarious.
P.S. – I just typed it into the translator at Babelfish and got “Chile grows with you.” Typo.
omg Kel, what is your deal? The word “chile” in spanish really does translate into the word “chili.” What i’m saying is ridiculous is that she translated the name of the country (Chile), assuming that it translated like the non-proper noun (chile).
again, a “typo” is a mistype, like writing “type” instead of “typo.”
this is not a typo.
You’re kidding me, right? I just typed it into the translator at Babel Fish. Here: http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translate_txt
“Chile” the pepper or common noun is spelled the same in every language, just like “Chile” the proper noun. “Chili” is a bowl of soup made with beans. :D
Go ahead. Translate it.
You’re the one who chose to bring up something so stupid because you apparently think Jill is stupid. But I guess when you really don’t have a real reason for being here – since your abortion was awesome and all – stuff like this comes up. :D
No, Caitlin, it does not. It’s PEPPER. You know, like we have Bell peppers, jalapen~o peppers, serrano peppers…to a native speaker of Spanish, those are all chiles. If you’re trying to argue some Tex-Mex use of the word, please know that that is not representative of the language as known by those from 20+ countries where it’s spoken. But do hop away from the thread where people were addressing some weightier matters.
Oh, well, then. “Mistype.” I stand “corrected.” lol
no no, “chiLLi” with 2 Ls is a soup made with beans.
“chile” can be translated to “chili” (with one L) which is synonymous with “pepper”
however, “Chile” the country is still “Chile” even when translated
Chile today and no abortions tomorrow.
Ok, Caitlin. Tomato, to-mah-to. If you care to actually look up “chili” you will find that not only is it a pepper, but a stew made with beans. Optional spellings for “chili” the stew including the spelling “chilli.”
I agree with you – Chile is Chile even when translated. What the heck was your point again? This has to be the most hilarious conversation I’ve ever had here with a pro-choicer. LOL
Oh, and if you’d like recipes for chili (or chilli, if you prefer), you can find some here: http://allrecipes.com//Recipes/soups-stews-and-chili/chili/Main.aspx
I am actually having a two-way discussion with Eric Zorn about his opposition to ultrasound legislation in IL at chicagotribune.org. If any post-abortive women who visit this site were denied a chance to view the ultrasound, you could help immensely with my point. Mr. Zorn apparently agrees that if an ultrasound is used, patients have the right to view it. He is now questioning my claim that clinics obfuscate the ultrasound screen. PP of Aurora told me over the phone that they do allow viewing of the ultrasound. Was anyone out there denied the right to view their ultrasound? Please comment on Zorn’s article at
