You may not leave the theater having switched sides, but you'll probably respect the other side more, and that in itself would be a victory for human life.

For all its provocativeness, Lake of Fire is not a shapeless movie, nor a politically irresponsible one.

Lake of Fire doesn't tell you what to decide, it just gives you as much information as possible to make the choice yourself.

Doesn't aim to win converts or preach to the converted. His goal is rather to clear through the rhetoric, and look at abortion and its place in the American political dialog.
