Emanuel Cleaver
At one of the meetings of the US Congress, a representative of the Democratic Party used the feminine form of the word “amen.” The Republican Guy Reshentale was outraged by this on his Twitter.
Thus, at the first meeting of Congress in the new year, Democrat Emanuel Cleaver said a prayer, ending it with the words “amen and a-woman”, which literally means “amen and a-woman.” As the Daily Mail clarifies, the congressman could have mistaken the word amen for a-man.
“The opening prayer for the 117th Congress ended with the words amen and a-women. Amen is a Latin word that means “so be it.” This word has no gender. Unfortunately, the facts are irrelevant to progressive [democrats]. Incredible, “Reshenthaler wrote. He also posted a video of Cleaver saying a prayer.
The British tabloid notes that the prayer followed a proposal from one of the committees to change the rules of family behavior and to remove the words “mother” and “father” inherent in a particular sex from everyday life. According to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, such changes will make the lower house of Congress “the most inclusive in history” for transgender and non-binary people.
