I put no on the poll, but not because I don't support the cause, but that I don't support cheap knock-offs of something else. If Christians want to make a point, they should start by being original.

Slapping a 'Jesus' label on something doesn't make it Christian.

Agreed. I can picture it now, "Hey Mindy, why arn't you talking?" What am I supposed to do? I can't tell them that I'm supporting pro-life because then the point would be ruined.
I wouldn't try to write it down because they would just laugh at me and smack me in the head, "Mindy, you're weird!" Then I'd smack them back and it just wouldn't end well. @_@
I'll support it by not doing abortion myself ^^.

Try the new kitty bread! Now made with real kittens!

""If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it."
Mark 8:34-35

Being a disciple of Jesus requires sacrifice, and denial of self. For someone who "Can't live without talking," not talking for a day would probably be an amazing way to make a sacrifice for the good of the Kingdom.

When you have tape over your mouth saying "life," I doubt people would take your silence personally (unless they're a pro-choice militant).

Then the teachers would tell me to remove it. I don't think they'll let a kid walk around with tape on their mouth all day.
And I know that my friends would really pick on me if I had tape on my mouth XD!

Kitty teh bread.

Doubtful. With the day of silence, the gay rights silent protest, students walk around with tape on their mouths all day. Freedom of speech/expression protects this right.

That's because the say of silence is cleared with the school prior to being done.

Try getting this past the administration.

According to the case of Tinker V. Des Moines, the school cant stop you from wearing tape over your mouth, unless of course you have a red taped mouth gang in your area, and it's covered in the school guidelines. I doubt that's the case. anyway, it's a law that prior rulings in trials should be followed for future cases. but i forget what its called... (see, Taking business law DID pay off a little)

Thank you so much for posting this! I LUFFELS YOU!!!!

I've always been against abortion and this seems like a great thing to do. I'm gunna go put sticky notes all around my room for this now!!! ^^  

[Soul Mourn]

Well I have school so If it was another day I would do it . . .  

[SinfulGuillotine]

To be perfectly honest, I find such "days of silence" to be an especially pointless way of protesting something.

Yes, actions can speak louder than words, but is it not words that inspire actions?

Yes, the silence is very symbolic, but beyond that, it really has no purpose.

If you feel very strongly about something, why not stand up on a desk in the middle of class and give an impassioned speech on the matter? Why not make t-shirts and use your words to inform people of your stance and reasons for taking the stance you do on a paricular issue?

While it's a nice idea, I just think there are far better ways to make a statement, all of which involve the very opposite of staying silent.
