Yes, the Universal Mother Spirit.Is the holy spirit a female? Is the real name of the holy spirit - Sophia?
Sophia = is the greek word of wisdom
In Hebrew Holy Spirit would beNo, the Holy Ghost is a Hebrew concept and is masculine. The female element would be the Shekinah.
YupI'm a disgrace.

Ruach is feminine, not masculine. Which yeshiva did you go to?
The Holy Spirit is not an autonomous being or entity, it is God's empowerment to mankind as He sees fit. For, God is both holy and spirit, and thus bestows at His will such an influence on those who are created in His image - spiritual beings.Is the holy spirit a female?

Leviticus 11:13-19 calls a bat a bird.
Leviticus 11:20-23 calls insects four legged.
Revelation 8:10 states that stars will fall out of the sky.
The "flood" is a biggie.
You figure every word is literally true and means exactly what you believe it means?
Nope. You are wrong in all of your claims. Do you want to have a discussion? The continents are not "modern" to start with. They are hundreds of millions of years old.No reason to believe the great flood didn't happen. World is full of evidence for it. (Modern continents, vast sediment formations, marine fossils on high mountains, oil, gas, coal fields and stories in almost all cultures around the world).
I think Bible explains well what it means. If it doesn't mean something literally, it is shown in the text.
If modern people invent new wrong definition for a bird, it does not make the old wrong.
It is true, most insects are four legged, the another two are arms that modern "scientist" wrongly call legs.
It can mean for example a shooting star, meteorites falling from sky. It is also possible that modern idea of stars is very wrong. So no, you failed miserably, sorry, but thanks for trying.
I think it's neutral, but I am not sure. I don't know.Is the holy spirit a female?
Female. Definitely female:I think it's neutral, but I am not sure. I don't know.
Bible doesn't say that the Holy Spirit is a female. Bible tells about the Spirit:
I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, [Greek Parakleton: Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, and Comfortor.] that he may be with you forever,- the Spirit of truth, whom the world can't receive; for it doesn't see him, neither knows him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.
John 14:16-17
But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
John 14:26
When the Counselor [Greek Parakletos: Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, and Comfortor.] has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me.
John 15:26
However when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.
John 16:13
Why do you think it matters is the spirit he or she?
