Anybody want some Doritos? Let's plunge into the Deeper Waters and find out.
So last night my wife was wanting to watch this program that frankly did not make any sense to me. It involved a bunch of grown men just running into each other constantly, but in the middle, it had these commercials and some were quite funny. I couldn't understand why these commercials were being interrupted by this strange performance. I was even more puzzled when I heard it had to do with some falconry event about a Superb Owl and that Herodotus had written about it long ago.
However, one commercial that stood out to me was one that was done by Doritos. Rather than tell you about it, I think I should just show you.

Cute commercial. Right? If you were anything like me, you just laughed at it. One of my friends had texted me and was saying that NARAL was upset about it. Something about humanizing fetuses. At the time, I was sure he was joking about that. (In fact, as I look over their Twitter feed, it looks like if they are choosing one thing, it is they are choosing to not have a sense of humor.)
What did they say about this?
I wish I was making it up. I'm not. NARAL is complaining about humanizing fetuses apparently. Well there's a bit of wisdom you need to remember about this.

You see, most of us watched it and enjoyed it. NARAL has a habit of wanting to psychoanalyze anything and look for something that can offend them. In fact, there was even a point last night where a video was made of Super Bowl babies. Who were these? They were ones who had their parents watching the game and then one thing led to another and that's how they were born. NARAL's reply was that sports fans should use protection.
Because, like, you know, getting pregnant is the most horrible thing ever.
When I saw that commercial, I really thought a lot of those people looked pretty happy. They were glad to be alive. They were celebrating that their parents chose life. (And last I checked, I thought the pro-choice side was supposed to be pro-choice. Why are they so upset when some people actually make the choice that they'd like to have children?)
Now for my part, I have done a number of podcasts where I have interviewed people on the topic of abortion to answer the challenge of the pro-choice side. I will simply put those here.
Megan Almon.
Gretchen Coburn.
Clinton Wilcox.
Freda Bush.
Jay Watts.
Peter D. Williams.
DeeDee Warren.
Dave Sterrett.
Lori Peters.
Daniel Rodgers.
As for me and my house, I think we'll celebrate the life that we have and maybe do so by making the choice to go out and buy some Dorito's because I like seeing ads like that, especially if they get the people at NARAL so riled up that they end up showing their true colors.
Happy Superb Owl Sunday NARAL.
In Christ,
Nick Peters

#NotBuyingIt - that @Doritos ad using #antichoice tactic of humanizing fetuses & sexist tropes of dads as clueless & moms as uptight.

Mommies and mommies to be should not be put in such a position. Leave to us grumpy old(ish) men.
