Toni Braxton Joins Ranks of Other Celebrities in Revealing Abortion
national review ^ | Arina O. Grossu

What do Toni Braxton, Sharon Osbourne, Sherri Shepherd, Sinead O’Connor, Stevie Nicks, and Charlotte Dawson have in common?

They’ve all had abortions.

Sharon Osbourne, reality star and talent-show judge on the British X Factor TV show, suffered three miscarriages due to damage to her cervix after having had an abortion at age 17. She recounted: “I had an abortion at 17 and it was the worst thing I ever did . . . I went alone. I was terrified. It was full of other young girls, and we were all terrified and looking at each other and nobody was saying a bloody word. I howled my way through it, and it was horrible. I would never recommend it to anyone because it comes back to haunt you. When I tried to have children, I lost three — I think it was because something had happened to my cervix during the abortion.”

Abortion is a curse that keeps on giving and not just to women.

My understanding is Ann Duhnam had an a failed abortion.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but wasn’t Toni Braxton’s father a man of the cloth?

Burnishing her liberal/feminist credentials, is she?

They join the ranks of million of ladies who need help and healing from hearts and minds that have been seared with the knowledge of participating in the murder of their unborn. It is such a deep sadness. But healing is available, especially in coming to Jesus Christ.

The good news is every single one of those unborn babies are before their Heavenly Father right now.

Proud to have hired a hitman/woman to murder her alive unborn child. What an amazing thing we are witnessing in these airheaded fools!

When I was in my early twenties, I really bought into the lie that it was all about choice. Who are those people in gubbamint trying to tell a woman what to do with her own body.

Boy, was I ever wrong. Not only is this infanticide, it is against the will of the Almighty.

When I became aware of what scripture said our creation and the Lord knowing us even before we are born and knitting us together in our mother's womb....changed my life.

Not only does science support life at conception, Holy Scripture does as well.

I heard it said,”it took a generation to get the message of pro-choice across to society.” I knew then it was an all out effort to brainwash American youth into believing this lie.

Lord, have mercy on us.

Patricia Neal wrote about her abortion in her memoir As I Am. She so regretted it. She said she wished that she had had her baby even though it was a result of an illicit affair, as Ingrid Bergman and Loretta Young did in similar situations. She said that years later, her late boyfriends wife( Mrs. Gary Cooper) even told her she wished she’d had the baby!

Men are kind of weird in that way; they (I believe) are fundamentally against abortion, but sometimes single mothers have problems finding a nice guy (as is often mentioned).

I’ve always found Sharon Osbourne to be quite annoying, but I really feel for her after reading that.

I read once that Hugh Heffner admitted in the 60's or 70's that he and his readers were in favor of abortion because it increased their chances of getting "lucky" on a particular night.I'd bet the clothes on my back that a huge percentage of guys who support it have *exactly* that attitude.

Maybe they get judgmental if the woman in question was someone they would have liked to marry.

Lately American men confuse me.
