What a powerful video!

It doesn't tell you who to vote for, just asks you to vote.
The message it to Catholics and it really is beautifully done.

wow. Almost brought tears to my eyes, thank you for sharing that
I'm writing out here, on this board, because I'm hoping it's a safer place to just "be" right now

I have a prolife tshirt. Doesn't say anything smart, snarky or anything. Just a plain Gap styled tshirt that says "Prolife" in simple white letters.

I'll throw it on and usually forget it as the day progresses. Last week I ran out to Kohl's with my hub. I got a few looks, more of people just glancing at it. Then in the check out line I felt a tap on my shoulder. A woman and her husband complimented my tshirt, told me they wish they had the courage to do the same and how there aren't too many today who would do it. I smiled and said I'd rather say something positive about myself then say something negative about the "other guy".

Then I thought about it in the car....in today's world is it really courageous to say out loud that you're prolife? I never for one moment thought it was that. Saying something, sure..any tshirt that has writing on it says "something" about you. It's just so sad if people want to say it.... but don't for reasons they feel require "courage". I mean ..wow..courage by definiton enables a person to face difficulty, danger, or pain without fear. Does saying your prolife require courage in today's world?

Thanks again for sharing the video
