highway billboard campaign to end abortion. Forty eight letters and cards were returned rejecting this request for funds.
I realized that religious organizations would be a key market for the purchase of these flags and so I procured a four volume directory set of books containing the names and addresses of every religious organization in the United States. An advertising company was hired to place the flag advertising slick into the coupon section of the Sunday newspapers in the markets of Portland, Bangor, Lewiston, Waterville, and Augusta Maine, Camden and Woodbury New Jersey, St. Paul Minnesota, Chattanooga Tennessee, Roanoke and Lynchburg Virginia, and Lafayette and Lake Charles Louisiana. In addition, son and I addressed and mailed a cover letter and the advertising slick to 8791 religious facilities of all denominations throughout the United States. The letter is shown below.
Dear Religious Leader:
Flags of Inspiration, a private and not for profit organization, is offering Flags of Religion to end the murderous Right to Abortion, in the United States of America.
Since 1973, in the United States, a holocaust of 45,000,000 human souls have been systematically exterminated with the seemingly “Good Housekeeping” stamp of approval of the United States Government. This translates to a daily execution of 3,500 human lives. As we all know, this horrendous desecration and attack on human life was not voted on by the people, in a “democratic” society. Basically, it was passed, on the opinions of a few people (“special” interest groups) and agreeing “Supreme” Court Justices. This travesty of legislation, has resulted in the tossing of our Nation’s people into moral and mental turmoil. People seem to be no longer as caring, loving, and concerned about others, as they were in the past. The approval of Roe vs. Wade, has caused the loss of our own humanity.
Flags of Inspiration, is planning a National Billboard Campaign to eradicate this awful tragedy. The hope is that a national “Grass Roots” highway advertising effort, encouraging the public to contact political officials regarding this heinous “right” will result in the rescission of this wrong. All profits received from the sale of Flags, will be used to fund a National Highway Billboard Campaign to rescind the abortion wrong.
Flags of Inspiration, is offering Flags of 5 World Religions and a World Unity Flag depicting an Understanding and Respect for other’s beliefs. The Flag of your choice can be displayed with dignity at the Community’s Place of Worship. Also, congregational members can demonstrate their support for ending abortion, by purchasing a Flag for display at home.
And, as we are “One Nation under God” the consideration may be, to display the Religious Flag of God, above the National Flag.
Thank you for your support.
