I heard an interesting item about an upcoming Superbowl ad that is already causing a controversy. That isn't unusual in itself, a lot of them are controversial. But this one is a little different from what we usually come to expect.
This ad, or commercial, is anti-abortion and features a popular college football player (Tim Tebow) thanking his mother for not aborting him, despite the advice of doctors to do so.
So who's offended? Why, the liberals of course!
Their reasoning (?) is that this type of message should not be played during the Superbowl because it divides Americans. According to them the Superbowl is a time when all Americans come together and airing this commercial causes us to divide.
Wait a minute...isn't the Superbowl itself a game between two teams? Is everyone pulling for the same team? Aren't we already divided when we sit down to watch the game? Maybe we need to narrow the season down to one team so we don't disagree on the outcome.
This has nothing to do with anything or anyone being divided. The pro-abortionists don't mind being divided.
What they mind is that this ad will have millions of viewers. Because of our right to free speech, those of us in favor of life will finally have some voice across not only this country, but abroad as well.
Isn't it amazing that the very one's who spout off whatever anti-life, anti-morality, and anti-God message they want, through the very media they're now trying to squelch, don't want free speech.
I'm sure they're still for free speech, as long as it's their speech that's being heard.
I wonder if they've ever asked all those murdered children what they think about it? I guess their free speech rights don't apply either.
