U.K Church Group Releases Poster Portraying Ultrasound of Unborn Baby Jesus in Response to TV Abortion Ad

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?
