** Fantastic Four superhero movie has powerful ‘Choose Life’ message at its core
------------------------------------------------------------

The Fantastic Four: First Steps - the superhero film currently in cinemas across Ireland - has been receiving rave reviews from both film critics and audiences alike. Within just days of its release, it grossed well over €200 million worldwide - making it the biggest release of its kind so far this year.

Its main characters - once astronauts exposed to radiation - return to Earth with incredible powers and newfound celebrity status. Early on it strikes a joyful note with Sue Storm - one of The Fantastic Four - discovering she’s pregnant. The other characters are thrilled with the news and the film showcases an amazing holographic image of the baby in utero.

The story then takes a dramatic turn when the villain Galactus demands the child’s life in exchange for sparing Earth, claiming the baby will develop immense and dangerous powers. The Fantastic Four make their decision public that they will not trade the child’s life for the planet’s safety. The announcement sparks panic and outrage; many view the child’s sacrifice as a necessary price for survival. But Sue addresses the world with grace and clarity. She shares a vision of courage and collaboration, insisting that humanity can rise to the challenge without sacrificing innocent life.

What follows is a deeply moving portrayal of parental love - especially the strength and resolve of a mother fighting to defend her child.

Whether deliberate or not, the filmmakers didn’t avoid the pro-life implications - perhaps reflecting a new openness within the industry for stories rooted in timeless values. The huge box office success of The Fantastic Four is likely to fuel even more interest in films that carry a similar message.

** PLC Letter in the Irish Times
------------------------------------------------------------


**
------------------------------------------------------------

Read our recently published letter in The Irish Times challenging the Government’s ongoing refusal to engage with pro-life groups about addressing Ireland’s rising abortion rate. While we remain critical of the media’s lack of coverage of pro-life perspectives, we acknowledge The Irish Times for publishing this letter.


** Another poll confirms ongoing shift toward pro-life in the U.S.
------------------------------------------------------------

The latest Associated Press/NORC poll on abortion brings encouraging news for the pro-life movement in the United States. It shows that the percentage of U.S. adults who believe abortion should be illegal in “all” or “most” cases has risen by seven points since June 2024. This marks the highest level of pro-life sentiment recorded since the leak of the Dobbs decision (overturning Roe v Wade) in May 2022.

Despite overwhelmingly negative media coverage of recent pro-life laws, this and other recent polls indicate a meaningful shift in the right direction. The AP/NORC poll is the second major survey in recent weeks to reveal an increase in pro-life support. Back in June, Gallup reported a rise in both the number of Americans identifying as “pro-life” and those who view abortion as “morally wrong.”

The AP/NORC poll, conducted in mid-July, surveyed over 1,400 adults across the U.S.

** 33 Planned Parenthood abortion centres have closed this year
------------------------------------------------------------

LifeNews is reporting that 33 Planned Parenthood abortion businesses have closed in the U.S. so far this year. They say that despite what Planned Parenthood and the media would have Americans think, all of the recently closed centres participated in abortions.

Whether by performing surgical abortions, selling abortions pills or referring women for abortions, all of the centres took part in facilitating the destruction of human life.
