The Sex of God

He: Grey/Blue...like a dark storm cloud.
She: Golden complexion.

Just out of curiosity, Does this mean that you believe in two Gods; a male and a female? Are they married? are they the highest Gods in your religion?

The male and female are two aspects of the One. In Hinduism, every representation of the Male is accompanied by the Female and she symbolises God's energy (the energy from which everything is manifest). Radha and Krishna, to me, represent the original manifestation of the Divine. Everything comes from them.

Blue female god Deities are very beautiful, yes.

But.... Purple One's are even better.

In My Opinion...

The Feri Tradition has an interesting view on this.

The Goddess doesn't just have a sex but IS sex. 'God Herself' is described as being pansexual.

So here's my thoughts.

IF there is a god (the christian one) and we were indeed made in his/hers image.

Then it would stand to reason that as females are the life bringers, then god as the ultimate life bringer would have to be female.

Discuss.

-Q
Clem and Zeke, two southern good ole boys, were friends since childhood. CLem died and then, some years later, Zeke died as well. Zeke is greeted by his lifelong friend at the gates of heaven.

Clem: Listen Zeke, there's something you may not like about heaven.
Zeke: What could it be? Is it hard work being up here?
Clem: No, no. We enjoy ourselves all the time.
Zeke: Is it the food?
Clem: Heavens no! The food is the best in the universe.
Zeke: Well what is it then?
Clem: Well, it's God. You see.....she's black.

God is a man. He is our Father in Heaven, not our Mother in Heaven, not It in Heaven.
I hope I don't get a violation for this, but it's really what we're talking about so here goes....

Are we saying that God has a penis? Isnt' that the definition of a male?

Since there is supposedly only one god/allah it would suggest his adequacy at breeding is lacking.
The fact he/she/it is not even hermaphroditic (capable of asexual reproduction) and therefore most likely homosexual (if gods are a sex) or totally infertile from the evidence demonstrated so far. My opinion is if god/allah exists at all, he/she/it is definitely gay.

After all he is a bloke isn't he? ie we are built in his image, so a lowly breeding machine like a woman would not count by a long shot.
yet no kids, when contraception was unavailable, so he may still be a virgin. BTW doesn't a virgin birth imply an XX chromosome so Jesus must have been female as well? Unless of course we deny the laws of the universe.

Cheers

So I guess you are only asking Christians and Muslims?

Not at all just that they come up with the best contradictions to the natural universe, all religions by definition are are false hopes.

I am completely serious here. I have always found it amusing that people would argue about whether or not God is a boy or a girl. This is supposedly an infinitely powerful being who created the universe and somehow people think it has a gender. I ask the penis question to point out how ludicrous this speculation really is. Saying an omnimax God is male is essentially saying he's got a penis. Is it important to anyone out there that their God is packing heat?

Since we're created in god's image, and we have both men and women, then I would assume that god is a hermaphrodite. Or, at the very least, a tranny.

And if He did, that would make Him less "omnimax"? I didn't realize body parts and power were mutually exclusive. You forget that Christians believe that Jesus Christ was God and had the power to control the elements by simply saying, "Peace, be still." Somehow He managed to do that despite having a penis.

So, just to be clear on this, because you haven't really come out and said it directly, you think God has a penis, right?

Right. (I already said He was a man and I thought we were both sufficiently familiar enough with the male anatomy for me not to have to spell it out for you.)
