Female of course ... don't you know that when God created men she was only joking?:)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

We were the prototype ;)

[kosta-pasta.livejournal.com]

Have you watched Dogma movie?;)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yup :)

I love that movie!

none...God does not have a body so therefore God doesn't have a gender either ;)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yes indeed!

[the-ravyn.livejournal.com]

I don't know.  I haven't gotten close enough to look up the kilt to see.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

That reminds me of Grosse Pointe Blank :)

Martin Q. Blank: Well, you don't know my cat, it's very demanding.
Debi: It? You don't know if it's a boy or girl?
Martin Q. Blank: I respect its privacy.

both.....a perfect duality of energy.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

That's what I think :)

sexless, however very sexy

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Ok, my first thought was:

You find androgyny sexy?

LOL!

even the word gender has its own semantic problems because while technically it simply implies a certain form of body in our common usage, it also applies to transcendent qualities that do not necessarily apply to either of the sexes specifically.

Think of this though... even if we accept the standard gender attributions, male = active/creative, female=receptive... you can then attribute omnipotence to maleness and omniscience to femaleness. Combine this with some of the divine names that different religions attribute to God, you'll see its impossible to pin down just one sexual polarity :)

And then you have Creation myths such as the Spider Woman where the creator god is neither male or female, but multiple gods collaborating.

The Goddess Discordia of disorganised religion... now thats another matter ;)

You're an Erisian?

[reynold.livejournal.com]

God is a transvestite. O:-)

*dodges several lightning bolts*

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

LMAO!

"My Goddess gave birth to your God. Next time she's considering an abortion."

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA :D

[yndy.livejournal.com]

yes - God is male or female

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Duality :)

[elysiankitten.livejournal.com]

Male, because men were made after His image.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm I've always thought that for Men to say they are made in God's image, and yet be so imperfect, is the height of arrogance...

[fayruz.livejournal.com]

Definitely male - if God were female, men would get periods instead of women!

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

But then men would be able to create life...

[fire-fox01.livejournal.com]

I dont really think God has a gender. But if so I think God would be both male and female, depending on what you are more comfortable with or need at the time.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I don't think God has a gender either...

[fox-bard.livejournal.com]

Option C. And Option D.

None of the above. All of the above.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

I love the icon bro!

[mighty-rontor.livejournal.com]

yup! Didn't even have to think about that one!

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

[delphaicdragon.livejournal.com]

The gods are all and none. Some of each, I think.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

Have you ever thought that all the Gods are simply faces of one God?

[mysticpickle.livejournal.com]

Ah but the true question is really does god have a belly button?

[amberpixiewolf.livejournal.com]

And if so...is it an inny or an outy?? :D

[electricsoupie.livejournal.com]

Robot.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Domo Arigato?

[red-bull.livejournal.com]

i laughed out really loud when i spotted this :)))

k....

let's get the ball in motion (you know my opinions but life needs spice)......

"GOD IS MALE AND IT'S THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO BE"

k.... blue touch paper lit.... ;)))

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

LMAO!

[gsharper13.livejournal.com]

An omnipitant being of free flowing form can be whatever it wants whenever it wants.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yup :)

[kalquessa.livejournal.com]

Male. If he were female we wouldn't have Princess Week.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:P

Ah, but then Men would have babies, and very painlessly too...

[crescent-fresh.livejournal.com]

god, like jamie lee curtis, is a hermaphrodite. with a tail. and a smell of cookies. and s/he rides in the front of an eternally circling train that also carries santa claus, the easter bunny, the tooth fairy, compassionate conservatives, and peyton manning's superbowl chances.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The Peyton Manning bit was the clincher :P

[soulview.livejournal.com]

Both

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

[miriyasterling.livejournal.com]

Neither. I think that humans like to define things in terms they understand, they find it comforting.

[donnickcottage.livejournal.com]

God is God. Nuff said.
