Priests for Life and Gospel of Life Ministries are announcing a special
project called “Is This What You Mean?” It aims to educate the
public about the nature of abortion and to challenge public officials and
candidates who support the legality of abortion to admit what it is.
We in the pro-life community have been fed up for a long time with “public
servants” who can’t seem to tell the difference between serving the public and
killing the public. And they call the killing a “choice.”
These abortion supporting politicians get away with what they are doing in large
measure because they refuse to talk about what the “choice” actually is. They
try to avoid the word “abortion” altogether; but even when they use it, the word
has lost practically all its meaning. Voters hear the word but are left with
little or no awareness of the gruesome horror it represents.
This election season, it’s time for that to change. No matter what politicians
or voters or Church officials are or are not going to do, it’s time that we who
know what abortion is draw a line in the sand and give candidates and
office-holders alike this challenge.
If you’re going to take a position on abortion, then you’re going to
have to come clean about what it is. We are no longer going to let you obscure
or trivialize the issue. Whether people agree with you or not, you owe it to
them to be honest about what you’re talking about. Therefore we issue this
simple call to honesty: We will describe abortion to you, and you tell us if
that’s what you’re talking about.
That’s it, pure and simple. This is not a debate, nor a threat. It’s a call to
clarity, a demand for honesty. That is not partisan, nor is it unreasonable; it
is not fanatical or inappropriate in any way. Nor is this about religion or
morality.
Here is what we need you to do:
- Watch the three You Tube videos above and get as many others as
possible to watch them.
- Fill out the form below. My associate priests and I will go to the
offices of pro-abortion politicians to challenge them to admit what
abortion is – and we want to be able to say that millions of people are
asking that question along with us!
- Open a You Tube account and sign on as a subscriber to my You Tube
channel (www.YouTube.com/frfrankpavone). Then place the
three videos above
in your “Favorites.” This will help drive more traffic to these videos.
- On blogs, in town hall meetings, in editorials, and in every
possible way, use the quotes from the abortion industry to challenge
pro-abortion politicians. You will find more quotes at the links below.
Please join us in this effort today.
