I applaud Tim Tebow and Focus on the Family for running a pro-life ad during the Super Bowl. However, by all accounts so far, it is a very mild message about “life” and hardly an in “in your face abortion is murder” commercial.
Still, CBS is being touted as “bold” for their bravery to run a “pro life” message… GASP!!!!
Have we really descended so far into political correctness and drifted so far from God as a culture that it is a media event and a controversy to air a commercial that gently says “family’s are good, if you get pregnant , choose to let your baby live…” I doubt it will even be that “bold”. Unless the message is almost hidden about “abortion is killing babies” there’s not much chance of it being aired.
Kudos to Tebow and FOF but it’s a shame we have to invest how many ever millions on one commercial to let people know they should not murder their babies. Those millions would support a lot of missionaries sharing a lot of Gospel to countless numbers of people who need the Savior… just a thought.
And by they way, it’s not “womens’ groups” wanting the ad pulled… it is the ABORTION INDUSTRY who want the ads pulled because it will cut into their murder-for-hire income…
Super Bowl ad stokes U.S. abortion controversy
DALLAS/CHICAGO, Jan 26 (Reuters) – U.S. women’s groups are urging television broadcaster CBS not to air an ad during next month’s Super Bowl football championship final because they say it has a strident anti-abortion rights message.
The plans to air the ad, sponsored by a conservative Christian group called Focus on the Family, could see the polarizing issue of abortion rights dropped squarely in the midst of National Football League’s premier event.
It would be the first time that Focus on the Family, a politically influential evangelical group founded by James Dobson, has bought air time during the Super Bowl — the ultimate prize of the advertising world with 30-second spots going for up to $3.2 million.
The Women’s Media Center and over 30 other liberal and women’s advocacy groups sent a letter to CBS, the TV network to air the Super Bowl on Feb. 7, saying: “… we urge you to immediately cancel this ad and refuse any other advertisement promoting Focus on the Family’s agenda.”
“We are calling on CBS to stick to their policy of not airing controversial advocacy ads … and this is clearly a controversial ad,” Jehmu Greene, the president of the Women’s Media Center, told Reuters.

Jesus Was Gay – It’s Official Now
by admin on February 19, 2010
That paragon of virtue, noted historian and accomplished theologian, Elton John has cleared up the controversy for us all.
It’s disappointing for us Bible teachers and old-school Christians but what can you do? A world famous celebrity has spoken so it must be true.
Oh well… maybe I’ll see what Muhammed is up to these days…
JESUS was GAY – according to the gospel of SIR ELTON JOHN.
The singer makes his controversial claim about the Lord in a new US interview that will enrage America’s bible belt.
Elton, 62, declares as he pours out his heart to a magazine: “I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems.”
