U.K. church group releases poster portraying the ultrasound of an unborn baby Jesus, sparks outrage in response to British TV ad offering abortion services.
ChurchAds.net has released a poster portraying the ultrasound of an unborn Jesus Christ, complete with a halo. This has sparked outrage in the United Kingdom. According to the
Christian Post, the "Baby-Scan Jesus" poster will be used for a 2010 Christmas campaign and has already stirred abortion debate well ahead of the holiday season.
The Churchads.net poster message reads: “He’s on His Way: Christmas starts with Christ.” The group explained that the poster idea came from the 21st-century convention that proud parents-to-be show the ultrasound of their baby to family and friends.
“Our new Baby-scan Jesus poster uses this convention to place the birth of Christ in an ultra-contemporary context,” the group explained. “It is highly impactful. It has a sense of immediacy. It creates anticipation. And theologically it speaks of both the humanity and divinity of Jesus Christ.”
The revelation of the poster comes just weeks after Britain’s Channel 4 began airing the nation’s first-ever TV ad for abortion services. The abortion ad shows women alone and asks “Are you late?” referring to a woman missing her period. It ends with contact information for abortion provider Marie Stopes International. Source
The poster isn't about starting a political debate, it is offensive on so many levels. I think we all have a right to our own beliefs about abortion. I am pro-life, but who am I to tell another person that they will be condemned for choosing to terminate a pregnancy?
