May 19 is approaching fast and Christians and Catholics are scrambling to organize protests, educational seminars and other activities to fight the lies of the popular book-turned-movie The DaVinci Code. But, what do pro-lifers and Christians in Hollywood suggest we do? Hit them in the pocket book�go see Over the Hedge that weekend as an alternative!
We have all seen the recent drama regarding �fake abortion clinics.� The abortion providers know that providing healthy alternatives to pregnant women through pregnancy resource centers works! It is no good to tell a woman not to abort if we are not willing to fulfill her real needs as she prepares for the birth of her child. This life-saving alternative hits the abortion providers where it hurts�their pocket book.
So... Because the ratings of new movies are usually done in comparison to other movies that come out the same weekend or within a few weeks of the new flick, going to see Over the Hedge during opening weekend is especially important. While protests and educational seminars can raise public awareness, this healthy, entertaining alternative can also be productive in lessening the impact that a bad movie has. Personally, I think it�s nothing short of a miracle that a fantastic, family-friendly movie comes out the same day as DaVinci.
Spread the word!
