CJ Brinson is a Guilford County pastor, and believes that many in the “pro-life” movement are too narrowly focused on the issue of abortion and fail to support “policies that make life easier for those outside of the womb.”
Brinson is speaking out in support for reproductive rights, and believes many who are strongly opposed to abortion rights are misinterpreting the Bible.
“I also just think it’s a misread of scripture to just say that God is absolutely against abortion,” Brinson said.
