Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) - The popular talent television show American Idol has again decided to align itself with pro-abortion groups for its annual "Idol Gives Back" fund- raising campaign. The program, which aired on Wednesday, will send donations from viewers to Save the Children and the United Nations Foundation, both of which back abortion.
Save the Children has a working relationship with what it describes as "prominent international organizations," but the groups read like a who's who of the pro-abortion movement.
They include the pro-abortion Center for Reproductive Rights legal group, the mammoth Planned Parenthood Federation of America abortion business, Population Action International, and the U.S. Committee for UNICEF.
Save the Children says "family planning" has been a "critical component" of its work for nearly 20 years and its alliance with Planned Parenthood means promoting abortion is included in that.
The 2008 American Idol Gives Back program funded UNICEF, which also supports abortion, and Save the Children.
Ironically, American Idol has produced pro-life finalists and a winner, Jordin Sparks, who is a long-time pro-life advocate.
Should we even be watching a show called "Idol"? I've always enjoyed watching the auditions, but always felt uncomfortable watching people get worshipped by teenage girls. The fact that the show is just feeding the idea to kids that being famous is the best thing in the world makes it blasphemous. It's poison! It just fills them with so much self-esteem, inverted admiration, personal affluence, and seeking for the world's approval. Just watch the auditions for American Idol and you'll see the outcome of parents who promote self-esteem to their kids. If you ask most children today what they want to be when they grow up, what would they say? Would they say a doctor, a teacher, an astronaut? Or would they say, "I want to be famous!" or "I want to be rich!" 2 Timothy 3:2.
No one can serve two Gods. Matthew 6:24. Do not be a slave to the things of the world. 1 Corinthians 7:23.
