(CNSNews.com) — Hollywood legend Jack Nicholson, 76, who is retiring from movies it was reported today, is, unlike many liberals in Tinseltown, a staunch pro-lifer who said in a 1984 interview about abortion, “I’m positively against it. I don’t have the right to any other view.”
He added that it was the moral character of his mother and grandmother that ensured he himself had not been aborted.

Bravo, but only as far as this should go.
To wit: We who believe in the right to life of the unborn typically believe in a whole lot more. I caution against citing Jack Nicholson as an icon of pro life-ism, or much else, for that matter. No matter what, I wish him well and for him, particularly, eternal salvation. I also readily recognize him as an historical figure of talent and renown in Hollywood.
As for avatars of the pro-life movement, we have plenty of those already who have so much else to recommend them.
We don’t need “jack” for further validation.
Damn it Mark, you took the words right out of my mouth here! 😛
Well, that’s great, for a person that actually lived a “Colorful Life!”
He was thankful he wasn’t aborted….which was really a Reality, with his “fast life” mother, who was conformed to this world!
Blah blah, blah, just another famous celebrity!
I hope for him the best!
