A recent Senate hearing took a surprising turn when a simple question about biology could not be answered. A medical doctor, testifying before Congress, repeatedly refused to confirm whether or not men can get pregnant. This moment revealed a startling disconnect from reality that should concern every American who values truth.

The exchange happened during a Senate committee hearing focused on the dangers of chemical abortion drugs. Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri asked Dr. Nisha Verma, an OB-GYN, a straightforward question: “Can men get pregnant?” Instead of providing a direct medical answer, the doctor called the question a “political tool” and refused to give a simple yes or no.

OMG. Doctor REFUSES To Admit Men Can’t Get Pregnant

Sen @HawleyMO: Do you think that men can get pregnant?

Dr. Nisha Verma: I hesitated there because I wasn’t sure where the conversation was going or what the goal was…

This refusal to acknowledge a basic scientific fact is a red flag for our nation. When those in positions of authority cannot speak the truth, it creates a crisis of trust. We are called to be people of truth, and this moment demands that we pay close attention to the ideologies shaping our country. The integrity of our public discourse is at stake.

This is not just about a single hearing; it is a spiritual battle for the soul of America. We must pray for our leaders and demand that they stand firm on the bedrock of truth. The safety and clarity of our society depend on it.

A Departure from Science and Common Sense

The purpose of the hearing was to discuss the safety of women, yet the witness seemed unable to define what a woman is. Senator Hawley pressed the issue, stating that the goal of his question was to establish “a biological reality.” He argued that her credibility as a scientific expert was in question if she could not answer such a fundamental question.

This incident highlights a dangerous trend where political agendas are prioritized over scientific facts. The idea that basic biology is a “political tool” is an assault on reason itself. It is a tactic used to confuse and silence those who stand for objective truth, a strategy that undermines the very foundations of a stable society.

When we consider the Constitution, we must remember the worldview of those who wrote it. The founding fathers operated with a clear understanding of natural law and the created order. They built a nation on principles that assume a shared understanding of reality.

The original intent of our governing documents was to create a just society grounded in truth. The idea that biological sex is fluid or a matter of personal identity would have been completely foreign to them. This modern confusion represents a radical departure from the principles that made America a beacon of freedom and stability. Your voice is needed to call our nation back to these foundational truths.

The Attack on Foundational Truths

The doctor’s evasion is symptomatic of a larger cultural movement that seeks to redefine basic aspects of human existence. By refusing to answer, she placed ideology above her medical training and the observable facts of science. This is not a matter of “complex experiences” but a simple biological fact that women get pregnant, and men do not.

This exchange shows the consequences of abandoning truth. When expert testimony in a congressional hearing is based on ideology rather than fact, it makes a mockery of the entire process. It also raises serious questions about the reliability of those who are supposed to be trusted medical professionals.

As believers, we know that truth is not relative. God created male and female, and this distinction is a beautiful and essential part of His design. To deny this is to deny the created order, which leads to confusion and chaos.

We must stand firm against these attempts to erode the foundations of our society. The Bible warns us about those who call evil good and good evil, and we are witnessing this inversion of morality play out in the highest levels of our government. It is time for people of faith to speak with boldness and clarity.

A Call to Stand for Truth

When the very definition of man and woman is up for debate, all other societal norms are at risk. We must pray for leaders like Senator Hawley who are willing to challenge these dangerous ideologies with courage.

The safety of women, the protection of the unborn, and the integrity of our laws all depend on a shared understanding of basic truth. We cannot allow our nation to drift further into a sea of relativism where there are no anchors. It is our duty to contend for the faith and for the truths that have sustained our civilization for centuries.

Join us in praying for our nation and for a return to the biblical principles that once guided us. Your voice matters in this critical hour. Let us be a people who are not afraid to speak the truth in love, for the good of our neighbors and the glory of God.
