A 33-minute pro-life video which documents the responses of young adults to questions about their stance on abortion, but also includes discussions on Adolf Hitler and the Holocaust in Eurpoe, has received more than a half-million views just nine days after its release.

Evangelist Ray Comfort produced “180” with the help of his Living Waters Ministry. He recently revealed that during the making of the film he was sickened by the answers so many young people gave to a hypothetical question he asked them after describing a life and death, Holocaust-like scenario.

On Tuesday, the film had hit the half-million milestone, and by mid-afternoon Wednesday, it had 525,494 views as displayed on the 180movie.com site and tabulated by YouTube.

“There seems to be a fresh stirring going on about the horror of abortion,” Comfort told The Christian Post. “Just today I was told that Rick Warren tweeted, ‘If we were all forced to WATCH 1 baby’s abortion, outrage would end them. A ghastly, grisly, inhumane torture not fit for dogs.’

“This isn’t some 30-second ‘Charlie bit my finger’ clip. It’s a 33-minute movie. So to reach more than half a million views on YouTube in 9 days is amazing.”

Last weekend, members of the First Baptist Church of Trenton, Fla., began displaying 4,000 white crosses on the church’s lawn. The crosses represent the number of babies lost to abortion each day in the United States, the church’s pastor said.

Also, on the lawn display next to a busy highway, four white banners on the corners boldly state “4000 Babies Murdered Each Day – Each Cross = One Child Each Day.” On the bottom of the banners the “180” website address is printed: “www.180movie.com.”

Famed Christian musical artists are also helping push the film to viral status.

Steven Camp, the American Dove Award and Grammy Award-nominated music artist, said, “‘180’ is the most profound gospel-advance on the abortion issue I’ve ever seen.”
Mark Hall of Casting Crowns recently posted on Facebook, “This short documentary has totally rocked my world …I dare you to watch 180.”
