Come What May, A New Pro-Life and Family DVD

From the Christian Cinema.com web site:

The judges are stacked against them...but the greatest debate will happen before they ever enter the courtroom. Patrick Henry College and the Advent Film Group team up in a new film presenting arguments that one day could be used to overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that found a right to abortion in the U.S. constitution. In the movie Caleb, a Christian student attending Patrick Henry, is caught in a moral tug-of-war as he challenges Roe v. Wade at the National Moot Court Championship. At the same time his mother, a feminist attorney, argues the case at the U.S. Supreme Court, but on the opposing side. This film is appropraite for the whole family and will be a conversation starter around issues that need to be discussed and dealt within the context of families. Choose what's right.

From the ACS web site: Only one writer wrote a book against Eugenics. G.K. Chesterton. Eugenics and Other Evils may be his most prophetic book.

The thing that really is trying to tyrannize through government is Science. The thing that really does use the secular arm is Science. And the creed that really is levying tithes and capturing schools, the creed that really is enforced by fine and imprisonment, the creed that really is proclaimed not in sermons but in statutes, and spread not by pilgrims but by policemen - that creed is the great but disputed system of thought which began with Evolution and has ended in Eugenics. Materialism is really our established Church; for the Government will really help it to persecute its heretics.
