The opening prayer to the 117th Congress caused a stir on Sunday when Democrat Rep Emanuel Cleaver, a Missouri Democrat, concluded by saying “amen” and “a-woman.”
In an apparent nod to gender equality, the United Methodist pastor ended his prayer “in the name of the monotheistic god Brahma and the god known by many different names, amen and awoman.”
Critics, led by Republican lawmakers, have pointed out that ‘amen’ means “so be it” and does not refer to the male gender, while ‘a-woman’ doesn’t mean anything.

RT reports:It did not take long for conservative commentators on social media to notice the creative wording. Some began to question Cleaver’s theological credentials – the lawmaker received his master’s from St. Paul’s School of Theology of Kansas City – while others accused him of mocking the religion.
While “amen” originated in Hebrew, passed through Greek, then was borrowed by Latin and can be translated into English as “truly,”“certainly” or “so be it,” netizens were left to guess what the pastor could have possibly meant by “awoman.”
“If Amen translates to ‘so be it’ or ‘truth,’ what does awoman mean?” one tweeted. “This can’t be real, right? Nobody is actually THAT STUPID?!”another wrote.

AMEN MEANS LET IT BE, OR “MAY YOU LET THIS HAPPEN” ALONG THOSE LINES, DUM AS!!! IT IS NOT GENDER BASED. SO STUPID.

Dimwit Democrat victim cult psychos can’t even get their grammar correct, where Amen is plural and Awoman is singular.
This Democrat dimwit reminds me of another time where another stupid Democrat claimed that a a white Christmas refers to white people and not snow.
Exactly The Ethiopians were Christians long before a lot of white people And the middle Eastern ears and jew a were the first Christians Not Europeans Jesus wasn’t white for a start Nor was his mum and or Dad cause neither were Adam and Eve.
He doesn’t know the origin or meaning of the word “amen”. Another apostate pastor.
Hew worse than apostate As a Christian alleged Methodist he’s demonstrated his Hypocrisy by DELIBERATELY making no reference to Christianity or zgod at all But has pit other zGods before God, So he’s a liar and a fraud a deceiver and a hypocrite, and the one thing God hates above All sins and abominations is the hypocrite The Bible says so he clearly does not believe in Monotheism himself.
Such idiots Amen comes from Egyptian religion Paganism whereby the sun God was amon ra I was just thinking last night about how amen came to be written into the bible and who made it the true translation Which legal scholarly theologians and who did, do they really worship.
It’s the communist caste class system where the brahma caste are the highest class India has more millions than anywhere else on earth Something like 300 million millionaires And its like communism similar to china’s capitalist communist corporate party which is what they want for the world Some sayAmen is Hebrew some say Latin and means so be it Maybe But it still comes from Egyptian sun worship and Amon Ra. Thats its origin I’m pretty sure. And the ONLY reason he’s insisting on monotheism is because he knows that at the Inter Faith Council ecumenical meeting about 15 to 20 years ago the Hindus Jews Moslem Shinto Protestant Church leaders all accepted that the Pope will be the one head of the new world order’s One religion All roads lead to Rome.
And Hindus aren’t monotheistic so it’s contrary to say Brahma as a monotheistic concept So you know he’s full of it and just being pc as an obedient servant. Serving. Also no monotheistic religion BELIEVES In the word monotheism as their God. He’s just full of it.
