Vicar refuses to allow lesbian couple to both be named as child's mother

A British vicar has refused to allow a lesbian couple to both be named as mother on the register of their child's baptism and claimed there was something wrong with the make-up of gay people.

The Rev George Gebauer argued that it would be illegal for both women to be recorded as the one-year-old boy's mother even though both have legal parental responsibility.

He went on to say he felt sorry for gay and lesbian people. "They produce too much hormone — they're imbalanced," he said. "That's the way they are. It's a medical issue."

After the vicar's stance became public, a more senior Church of England cleric stepped in to say that both women – the child's biological mother, Aimi Leggett, and her civil partner, Victoria Leggett – could after all be named as mothers to the child, Alfie, and the baptism would go ahead.

And a heart.

Somebody needs to lend shenmue a science book so that it can learn how two women cannot both be mothers of the same child.

Science says only one of them could be the child's biological mother. Even if it were possible to fertilize the mother's egg with genetic material from her spouse, (and I imagine one day in the near future it will be) the donating person would be the child's father.

Another example of how the left changes the language to suit their own desires. Now it is bigoted to insist that the word mother means the woman that actually gave birth to the child.  :mental:
