As Britney reveals she aborted Justin Timberlake’s baby - I’m surprised by how mainstream media welcomes terminations

Christian writer Hope Bonarcher reflects on the messaging that mainstream media puts out about abortion and suggests that Jesus offers a better solution.

The topic of abortion has hit the headlines in many ways recently. Britney Spears revealed in her new memoir that she had an abortion more than 20 years ago during her well-documented romance with Justin Timberlake. She puts the onus of the decision to terminate the pregnancy on Justin’s belief they were too young to be parents, claiming she wanted to keep the baby and eventually marry Justin. She offers a disturbing description of the intense pain of a pharmaceutically induced abortion as the life they created together agonisingly died. All the while Justin attempted unsuccessfully to console her while singing and playing guitar.
