A Catholic film studio called Spirit Juice Studios released a short pro-life film called “To Be Born” last June. If you haven’t seen it yet, you can watch it for free at ToBeBorn.com, or click the embedded video below. I had the opportunity to interview Ray Kaczmark, the director of “To Be Born,” to ask him some questions about the movie.

Questions:

01. Let’s talk about this movie, To Be Born. What was the inspiration behind the film and why did you produce it?

02. What makes To Be Born different from other pro-life films that are already available?

03. What has the response been to the movie so far?

04. Do you know what results have come from the film? Do you have testimonies or people saying they didn’t have an abortion because of this?

05. What kind of response have you received from pro-life activists or professional pro-life people?

06. What kind of responses have you received from pro-choice advocates?

07. The letter during the middle section of the movie, the letter from the unborn child, that this was based on this thing that the priest had been using. Is the text of the letter that’s heard in the voice-over of the film, is that exactly the same as the priest has been using or did you guys modify it?

08. The main question that came up in my mind when I saw the film — I think the only potential complaint I might have with it, but I want to ask you about it, is clearly you guys were careful in the script writing process. But talk to me about the decision to portray the embryo as somebody who is able to hear, able to cry, able to feel fear and pain, able to sense Mom’s emotions, has conscious thoughts. You know, these are things — I mean, in the film, not to try to, you know — spoiler alert! But the mom has just had a positive pregnancy test so we’re talking about an early embryo here at this point. And these are things that don’t happen in the first trimester. Was there thought about that or a reason for that?

09. What do you hope to accomplish with this film?

10. Do you plan to make more pro-life films in the future?

Josh, Liz and Andrew have been talking to pro-choice people for years, and every once in a while, they’ve come across some very unique arguments. We discuss how pro-lifers should respond when they come across arguments like these:

“How do you know you’re human?”

“If I have a tie, and giving you this tie will save your life, I still don’t have any obligation to give you this tie.”

“Personhood begins when you can visually determine the baby’s gender on an ultrasound.”

“Abortion is okay because the unborn will be reincarnated into a family that will love them.”

Correction from Josh: At 14:30 I said that in some states you not only have a moral obligation to dial 911 if you see a mugging going on in the distance, but also a legal obligation. I have not yet finished my research on this subject, but since recording this episode last year, my opinion has changed and I am no longer convinced that there are any state laws that requires anyone to dial 911 in this situation. Whether these laws should exist is another debate. Judith Jarvis Thompson does argue in her famous essay that everyone is morally obligated to do this. It would be the act of a “minimally good Samaritan.”

Roe vs. Wade was passed in 1973, and the topic is being discussed more frequently now that the Supreme Court make-up has become more pro-life. Is it time for it to go? In Part 1, Josh, Carrie and Liz discuss 3 out of 5 reasons why they think Roe should be overturned.

Reason 1: Public opinion polls show that the majority of Americans are against 95% of the abortions performed for reasons other than rape, incest, or life of the mother.

Reason 2: The question of when life begins has been definitively answered.

Reason 3: We can see after 35 years how much women are being hurt by abortion, both physically and emotionally.
