I agree with rojse, but is God's relationship with us father-like or mother-like?
I think that the lack of a genderless third person phrase for English is quite poor for the major world language.
I am quite convinced that "god", "tao", whatever... is without gender. I am also quite convinced that it has no human characteristics. So no matter what "it" is, it will not be "disappointed" with anything being that disappointed is a human characteristic.
Last time I checked "relationship" is not "gender."what about genderless parent? I dont see the One as a parent figure.... but if you want to see it that way.....
Are there genderless third persons in other languages?
I think most translate as "It"
Not necessarily that it doesn't have the "capacity", just that it has no need for that capacity being that it isn't human.I'm inclined to agree with you. I'd like to clarify though... The green bit confuses me a little.
Do you mean to say that either way, it doesn't have the capacity to care about what it's called?
