I use these opportunities to share with critics the plot of one of my favorite films, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas….
… Instead of worrying about the thousands of people being killed at the death camp near their home, [the main character’s parents] are instead worried about what would happen to Bruno’s “emotional well-being” if he found out about the killing. But is this any less morally perverse than the fact that most people in America today are more concerned about children seeing images of abortion than by the thousands of children being killed by abortion every year in their own neighborhoods?
Here’s the trailer for that movie, if you’re unaware of the premise…
[NARAL]’s 2009 report giving a “D” grade to the US on abortion suggests pro-life progress at the state level. According to the report’s analysis of governors and state legislators, states are pro-life by a 2-1 margin.
Jill Stanek is a nurse turned speaker, columnist and blogger, a national figure in the effort to protect both preborn and postborn innocent human life.
If you see “Boy In The Striped Pajamas,” you WILL cry, so have plenty of tissues on hand. Without giving away the plot, is a beautiful, but heartbreaking film.
Awesome flick, agreed.
The writer does an excellent job of portraying the various ways people in that day dealt with / reacted to the evil that was occurring in their neighborhoods. You see the complete spectrum of righteous indignation, passivity, willful ignorance and the zealous pursuit of genocide.
It’s very much like what we have today in America surrounding the abortion issue.
We’ve been passive for so long. I pray that righteous indignation consumes the church, and our country.
Someone put it up in parts on YouTube.
I almost vomited.
