    So which one gave birth ?
    This is weird and bizarre . The idea that he is an important cabinet member of Quid's regime makes it doubly disturbing .

    They also have given birth to two dogs, Truman and Buddy!

    (Tom, you musta missed reading this sentence in your link: "The couple, who have been married since 2018, had been trying to adopt for a year, The Washington Post reported in July."

    I didn't miss it at all. What is weird is them posing in a birthing bed as if one of them actually gave birth

    That's the FUN of adopting two babies! It helps set the scene and solidifies the parental relationship.

    It is sick ! It shows how much the Sec Transportation has lost touch with reality . It is childish play acting to pretend one of them actually birthed a baby . White cisgender male Pete is still trying to prove he is queer enough ,

    It is doubly sad for those two babies. To be condemned to be raised in such a perverse arrangement is a sad reflection on how little regard our culture has for the genuine welfare of children.

    Nothing sad about it. I know of far too many male-female marriages that are broken or have totally failed, leaving their children distraught and angry. My kind and generous gay legally married SIL and her very sweet wife years ago adopted a newborn baby boy who is now a wonderful (straight) young adult.

    What is sick are these two comments. Incredible homophobia. Your comments are disgusting.

    I have dear relatives and many wonderful friends who are in the LGBTQ+ community. God has been so good to me, has blessed me abundantly!

    You really believe God is the author of that?

    You get back what you offered. "sad", "perverse", "condemned". I repeat, disgusting and sick.

    If a legally married man and woman took the same pose, holding newly adopted babies, would you make the same complaint, "It is childish play acting [sic] to pretend one of them actually birthed a baby"?

    either one applies here
    Queer could also mean strange. And it is very strange for 2 adult males to pose for a picture in a birthing bed. But you do know that the LGBTQXYZ community attacked Pete for not being gay enough during the campaign ? Homophobia implies a fear . That would make that an inaccurate assessment .

    That's your opinion and you are welcome to it, but there is no indication of that in the Bible.

    I was referring to beliefs and ideas. You were referring to people. Big difference.

    Well, here they are. Gal. 6:2. "Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ."

    Luke 10:27. He answered, “’Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”

    You said, "I have dear relatives and many wonderful friends who are in the LGBTQ+ community. God has been so good to me, has blessed me abundantly!"

    I replied, "You really believe God is the author of that?"

    So in what way do your two scriptures justify homosexual behavior? Perhaps my question was unclear?
