'Movie 180' On Abortion Goes Viral

Topics: Abortion, Political News and commentaries

According to LifeNews.com, the new pro-life movie 180 is changing public opinion on abortion and has become an overnight sensation as nearly half a million people have watched the 33-minute pro-life documentary in just one week since director and producer Ray Comfort released it to the public:

The film is changing public opinion on abortion 180 degrees in a matter of minutes as it shows Comfort asking pro-abortion students questions that change their views quickly. Titled to reflect the complete turnaround in the mindsets of all to whom the question is posed, the award-winning film shows eight "pro-choice" people, mostly college students, changing their stance to pro-life just moments after the question is asked in its entirety. It was Comfort's hope that the documentary would go viral and it appears to have done so.

That has happened -- with the video getting more than 500,000 views after it was featured at LifeNews and elsewhere across the Internet. Viewers have left 7,500 comments -- with people saying they changed their minds on abortion or regretted the abortions they had had.

"I confess, I have committed 7 murders! GOD forgive me, I will never NEVER AGAIN trivialize abortion. NEVER again will I agree with the lie," one person said while another viewer added, "From someone that been Pro-choice this video changed my view on life completely."

"I was always pro-choice and now I am pro-life after watching such a powerful video," a third viewer said and a fourth added, "It changed my mind and made me aware that I've got to make a stand on this issue."

A Facebook comment had one viewer saying, "My husband and I have always disagreed about the right to life for the unborn. After watching 180 today he has had a change of heart and now wants to protect children in the womb. Thank you for this amazing gift."

Interestingly, the producer was able to get 14 people on-camera, mainly university students, who didn't have a clue who Adolf Hitler was, swing from the Holocaust to abortion fairly seamlessly because it came in the form of a question: 'How do you feel about abortion?' (Warning - may be very disturbing to some readers).
