The American Life League is reporting that a new pro-life DVD "Baby Steps" is already saving the lives of the unborn. Conventional ultrasound gives a good picture of a baby growing in its mother's womb, but a new technique called 4D Ultrasound shows the baby in astounding detail. The new technique gives the picture depth, then time lapse photography and animation are added to show the baby moving about, kicking, stretching, listening to his mother's voice, and even smiling. For the first time, even doubters will have indisputable proof that abortion takes the life of a human being.
According to the American Life League, after the DVD was sent to crisis pregnancy centers, many women decided not to abort their babies. The new 4D pictures may have the same effect that photos of slaves had before the Civil War. Until realistic photos of slavery appeared in the North, slavery was not really understood by many people. Once the photos appeared, no one doubted that slavery was evil. The DVD "Baby Steps" may have a similar effect, and help to end abortion once and for all.
The DVD gives new meaning to the words of the psalmist David:
"Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; and in Your book were written the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there was not one of them." (Psalm 139:16)
