Can men get pregnant? In Senate hearing, one doctor leaves open the possibility

Many people put ideology over reality, and the situation this week between a senator and a doctor is proof.

Earlier this week, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Missouri) was questioning board certified OBGYN and complex family planning subspecialist Nisha Verma when Hawley repeatedly asked whether men could become pregnant.

Verma would not answer the question.

 "I take care of patients with many identities," said Verma, M.D., M.P.H.

Responding to this on American Family Radio (AFR)'s Today's Issues program, Dr. Alex McFarland said it was a simple yes or no question.

"Truth is yes or no, right or wrong, black or white, objective vs subjective," said McFarland, a Christian apologist, author, evangelist, religion, and culture analyst. "Transgenderism is demonic, and it's one thing to have this attitude of God can't tell me what to do or not do, but the transgender ideology says 'God doesn't even have the right to define what I am or who I am.'"

This was not the first time McFarland witnessed someone in the medical profession not wanting to answer questions about gender and sexuality.

"At the medical school at Louisville a couple years ago, they had a panel discussion on what is a human being, and I had the great privilege of being on this panel as a philosopher, not as a minster, but as a philosopher," said McFarland. "The subject of gender identity came up, and I asked 400 medical students, many of whom got very visceral and angry at me, saying that maleness and femaleness is objective."

If you ask McFarland, "inclusivity has become the religion of the world." The only thing that is not allowed or included "are those who believe in objective truth."
