HiddenProlifeMessage: Stranger than Fiction

i watched Stranger that Fiction last night, and i thought it was so interesting how ***spoiler alert*** the writer was floored by the reality that Harold Crick (the character in her story) was a real person.
there she is, trying so hard to write a story about a man named Harold Crick. She spends a month trying to figure out how shes going to kill him off in the story. The story shes writing is her masterpiece, so it has to be perfect.
then Harold shows up at her door and asks her not to kill him, because he is a real person.
she isnt sure what to do, so she lets Harold read what she wrote so far. Harold thinks the story is wonderful, and he knows its her masterpiece that only his "imminent death" can complete.
another writer, whom Harold confides in, tells him that it is better for him to die in the way that the author wants him to, because it would be a nice, poetic death--different from the one he might meet otherwise.

a clean, safe death. die for the story. its a masterpiece. dont ruin her life. sacrifice to her masterpiece.

sounds like what abortion counselors tell their clients. "having a child will ruin your life" "you have your whole life ahead of you, you cant let a baby ruin it" "this abortion is necessary"

luckily for both Harold and the writer, the writer decided to sacrifice her masterpiece for Harolds sake, and Harold, the virtually helpless character in a story, didnt have to die.

another thought is that she had to see him first to know he was real, in the same way a lot of mothers have to hear a heartbeat or see an ultrasound to know their babies are real and alive. theyre told by the abortion industry that the baby is a clump of cells, thats its not alive until a certain point, or that its not a human unless it can take care of itself.

what you realize is that the truth has to be hidden in order for people to violate it. life has to be hidden for us to destroy it the way we do in abortion. otherwise, abortion wouldnt exist.

"America wont stop abortion until America knows what it looks like."
-paraphrasing Fr. Frank Pavone

its important for us to reveal the truth. we can do that with pictures of unborn children (alive and/or aborted) and through charitable conversation. its why people protest outside abortion clinics with signs and pictures, and open pregnancy centers, and change laws, etc.

join the fight!
