I wrote a book called <em>Hitler, God and the Bible<\/em> and told the publishers, <a href=\"http:\/\/WorldNetDaily.com\" target=\"_blank\">WorldNetDaily<\/a>, that I was going to create a video called Hitler\u2019s Religion and go with it, took part of the manuscript and made it into a TV script and found it was just too big, too long, and too confusing and I actually gave up. I said, \u201cLook, I\u2019m taking a camera out in the streets to find out what people believe about Hitler\u201d and we just abandoned the script. And I came back with 14 interviews of people who didn\u2019t know who Hitler was. That really, really blew me away. And then I bumped into a guy named Steve who was a neo-Nazi, black-hating, Jew-hating, Hitler-loving, America-hating atheist who had a 14-inch blue Mohawk and that was very colorful footage. And then I was heckled by a German neo-Nazi, Jew-hater and we managed to get him on a hidden camera and a hidden microphone and then I bumped into a Russian Jew who happened to have lost his relatives in the Holocaust.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->So, all this was totally unplanned and I looked at the footage and I go, \u201cWhat have we got here? This is quite amazing.\u201d And as I went through the Holocaust, I read about some Jews that were shot by the Nazis, pushed into a mass grave and then [the Nazi\u2019s] brought in bulldozers and buried them while some of them were still alive and that horrified me so I decided to go out and test people\u2019s moral character by asking if they had at gunpoint would bury Jews alive. And people would say, \u201cNo, no, I wouldn\u2019t. I would never do that. I could never do that.\u201d And I say, \u201cWell, you\u2019re a compassionate person.\u201d They\u2019d say, \u201cYes, I\u2019m very compassionate.\u201d I say, \u201cHow do you feel about abortion?\u201d And they\u2019d say, \u201cIt\u2019s a woman\u2019s choice.\u201d So I\u2019d reason with them and I\u2019d ask them one question and it greatly surprised me but the question made them change their minds about abortion. It was in seconds and so we sat back and thought, \u201cBoy, this is not a video about Hitler at all. This is a pro-life video.\u201d So we changed the name to &#8220;180.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0Let me ask you about something you just said. You said there was hidden camera footage in the movie?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0Oh, yeah, yeah. The guy that had got the blurred \u2013 have you watched it?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0Yes, twice now.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0The German guy that had a blurred face. We used a hidden camera and hidden microphone for him, and he actually called the ministry this morning very angry, not that we\u2019d filmed him. He didn\u2019t mind being on the film. He just said we\u2019d misrepresented what he \u2013 Christianity. That\u2019s what he was mad. He wanted us to have his Nazi views. So yeah, there was hidden camera footage and I think it\u2019s exciting as long as you hide somebody\u2019s face and leave their identity out, it\u2019s quite legal to do so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0Okay. That\u2019s what I was wondering \u2018cause again all I know is that California\u2019s a two-party state and I wasn\u2019t exactly sure what the laws were on that.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0Yeah, as long as you blur their face.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm: What are you hoping to accomplish with the film?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0We want to change people\u2019s minds about the horror of abortion that it\u2019s not right to kill children in the womb. We\u2019re like living in Nazi Germany in 1940. We have what\u2019s called the American Holocaust by many, 50 million Americans being killed by people who think they can choose to kill babies in the womb and we want to put a stop to that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0Now you often compare abortion to the Holocaust and a lot of pro-lifers do this. Ray, tell me how you respond to people like Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel, who doesn\u2019t believe that abortion and Holocaust are comparable?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0That would be because he doesn\u2019t believe that it\u2019s a baby in the womb but science has told us. Now we know. We\u2019re without ignorance any longer that at six weeks, six days a baby in the womb has a mouth and has hands and has eyes. It\u2019s got a heartbeat. It\u2019s a living person within the womb and if you redefine Jew as being non-human, it justifies the murder of Jews en masse. Now if you redefine what\u2019s in a woman\u2019s womb as being not human then you may do so and take the life of it.<\/p>\n<p>But God highly prices human life. If you look at Genesis 9:6 of the Jewish scriptures, you\u2019ll see that God says if you take the life of another human being, if you spill their blood, your blood will be spilled. \u00a0In other words, you\u2019ll give your life for it. Capital punishment.<\/p>\n<p>And then it says, \u201cFor he is made in the image of God.\u201d Man is not like an animal. He\u2019s not a beast. You can\u2019t murder a horse or a dog or a cat. That word \u2018murder\u2019 is reserved for human beings. And that\u2019s because God highly prizes human beings above the animals and if you take the life of someone, you lose your life because their life is valued.<\/p>\n<p>So when you take the life of a baby in the womb, then you are murdering them according to God\u2019s book and you\u2019re responsible and this is something that should horrify every one of us including survivors of the Holocaust.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm: What percentage of people interviewed, not just shown on the movie but interviewed, changed their minds on abortion?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0Oh, boy, I couldn\u2019t try to put it out. 50-60%? Because I didn\u2019t interview anyone that was pro-life. I didn\u2019t want to change their minds on that and I just find out if someone\u2019s pro-abortion. So, most people I interviewed, they changed their mind and then we put people that just said, \u201cNo, you\u2019re never going to change my mind.\u201d One lady who was gay, she\u2019s homosexual, she wouldn\u2019t change her mind at all. Another couple that were there said, \u201cYou would never change my mind about abortion. My mind is made up. It\u2019s wrong. I wouldn\u2019t do it myself but I think that a woman should have the right to choose to kill a baby in her womb if she so desires.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0You know I do a lot of work with <em><a href=\"http:\/\/jfaweb.org\" target=\"_blank\">Justice For All<\/a><\/em> and we go out and we train pro-life people to dialogue with pro-choice people about abortion in the most effective ways possible. Would you encourage other pro-life advocates to use hypothetical situations the way that you did when talking to pro-choice people?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0Absolutely. If you want to change people\u2019s minds about abortion, try it. It works because you\u2019re appealing to their reason, their logic, and their conscience. I\u2019ve done it without the camera. On a plane, I sat with a guy and I reasoned with him the same way I do in the video and he changed his mind about abortion. Then he looked at me and he said, \u201cYou know, I like the way you do this because you don\u2019t push ideas on people. You just give them the information and leave them to make their own minds up.\u201d And that\u2019s exactly what happens on the video.<\/p>\n<p>So this is something that works and I encourage every person that\u2019s pro-life to talk to other people and learn how to do this. We\u2019ve got a course that\u2019s commended by Kay Arthur. She actually helped me put it together and the same with Randy Alcorn and it\u2019s a 64-page book that will help you to learn how to do this, help you to learn how to address someone\u2019s conscience, how to reason with them. It\u2019s not something that takes tremendous intellect. I mean I don\u2019t use big words. All I do is use logic and reason and that does work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0Your video showed graphic images of the Holocaust. What do you think about the need for pro-lifers to show graphic images of aborted children and how effective do you think they are?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort: Well, that\u2019s a great question and it\u2019s something I wrestle with. When people say I showed graphic images of the Jews in the Holocaust, actually I didn\u2019t. I held back on showing decapitated heads, shrunken heads, human skin used for lamp shades and teenage girls being hung by the neck and Nazis laughing at them. I just felt they were too graphic because I did an experiment. I put in graphic images of cut-up babies and I watched people closely to see how they would react and people that were tender-hearted, that were just brokenhearted with abortion, I watched them look away. They couldn\u2019t look at those images and I thought, some people that can handle it, they can look at that and go, \u201cWell, that\u2019s terrible.\u201d Other people just turn away and I don\u2019t want to turn people away. I want people to stay for the gospel presentation because that\u2019s the most important part. And so we did wrestle with it and we decided not to put in too many graphic images both of bodies of Jews and of bodies of babies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0A lot of Christian ministries avoid talking about abortion because it is a controversial issue. Based on your experience, do you find that it has been effective to get people to talk about their beliefs?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0Yeah, the reason I think a lot of Christians don\u2019t want to talk about abortion is because the secular press or media have demonized those courageous Christians that stand outside abortion clinics, that made them out to be hatemongers and doctor killers and fundamentalist, narrow-minded bigots that want to take a woman\u2019s choice from them. And so, it\u2019s quite intimidating for a Christian to get involved in the pro-life movement as it is at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>And I\u2019m sure many good Germans actually got into the pro-Jew cause in 1949 and \u201941 and perhaps stood outside concentration camps and protested or maybe wrote something on a pamphlet and lost their lives because of their cause. We don\u2019t need to pay such a price. What we can do is use this video, either send <a href=\"http:\/\/180movie.com\" target=\"_blank\">180movie.com<\/a> via e-mail to someone, encourage them to watch it, or they can get the video from us. We sell them at $1 each. We\u2019re giving away 200,000 in universities across the country. 100 universities this month in one day.<\/p>\n<p>And so there is something we can do and when people realize that they don\u2019t have to muster the courage to stand outside abortion clinics and be demonized because there are other things they can do, I think we\u2019re going to see a groundswell of movement towards speaking up against the murder of unborn in our country.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0The first 20 minutes of your movie got a really good review from a pro-life\u00a0non-theist\u00a0on the secular pro-life blog. But that person was disappointed in the evangelism, last part of your movie. What do you think of non-Christian participation in the pro-life movement?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0I think it\u2019s wonderful. Just as everybody, not only Christians, should have spoken up against the killing of the Jews in the Second World War, everybody should speak out against the killing of the unborn. And I can understand why they were offended because the gospel has an offense to it. But now I\u2019ve got more chance to flossing the back teeth of the lions in the L.A. zoo at feeding time than I have of getting the gospel out, because that\u2019s the reason I created that movie is to tell people how they could find everlasting life.<\/p>\n<p>So if they want a pro-life video that\u2019s effective, they have to take it as it is. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve got that FBI threat at the beginning not to duplicate this movie because we knew that secular people would say, \u201cBoy, this is <em>[unintelligible]<\/em>, let me just cut off that gospel stuff.\u201d Well, we\u2019re not allowing them to do that because that\u2019s so important.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0Final question. How can pro-life people get involved, Ray?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0Well, they can do as I said, see that the social media is just such a powerful force, the video that we\u2019ve got on <a href=\"http:\/\/180movie.com\" target=\"_blank\">180movie.com<\/a> within one week is just hitting nearly half a million views. And that\u2019s huge. This isn\u2019t a one-minute \u201cCharlie Bit My Finger\u201d YouTube clip. This is a 33-minute video that people commit to watching.<\/p>\n<p>So we\u2019re absolutely ecstatic and we just want pro-lifers, whether they be secular or Christian, to send this all over the world, all over the Internet and encourage other people to watch it and pass it on. And also they can get the \u2013 they can go to <a href=\"http:\/\/HeartChanger.com\" target=\"_blank\">HeartChanger.com<\/a> and get the actual video for a dollar each and pass them out outside their local school, wherever people are going to take a free video. It takes \u2013 it\u2019s got perceived value. It\u2019s worth about $10. So especially with today\u2019s economy, if someone giving away free DVDs, people are going to take them and watch them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josh Brahm:\u00a0Alright. As much as we\u2019d love to spend more time with Ray, he has a series of more interviews to get to. Ray, thanks for joining us. We\u2019re going to do our best to get \u201c180\u201d in front of even more people.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ray Comfort:\u00a0Oh, thanks so much, Josh.
