why god why after all these years???????


Why is God a woman, why I cant digest that one thing. I worship god because he is HE and SHE, the last thing i want to know in my life is that God is a WOMAN

reply

Long before this movie came out, I came to the realization that if God exists, he/she is probably a woman. God gave birth to the universe and women are the only ones capable of giving birth. I'm not saying existence spat out of God's vagina, but... who knows. Just my opinion.

I worship god because he is HE and SHE
You think God's a tranny? Maybe.

1) God is an Omnipotent spirit and can take any gender and any appearance that it wants.
2) You are racist.

"God is a Man..........thats why he gave the power to dominance to man not woman."

God didn't do that - MEN did that.

(I took the liberty of correcting your typo btw - please don't be offended. ;) Also, wouldn't it have been more accurate to say that you believe that God is a *Male*? God is certainly not a man - God is a God. The name kinda says it all...)

I'm probably being sarcastic...

...Ehh, that happened in the bible on a major scale once and on a minor scale in every second chapter.

Now, I am an atheist. But if there is a god, I am sure he is male for a very simple reason: He doesn't speak to us.

No woman could ever keep quiet for this long.

You've obviously not read the Old Testament.

You haven't read the Old Testament have you?

Your view is an arrogant "human" view of things... there are many species in which the male, not the female gives birth to the offspring, and most species on earth lay eggs and do not give birth at all. "God" (if there is one) is probably neither male or female, but something neither you or I could comprehend. "God" is probably closer to the "force" from star wars than a single being.

Well, that's news to me!

reply

It's the male seahorses that give birth, not the females. Other species don't have genders, some reproduce asexually ...

The reason we think of god as male is that he created "man"/humans in an image of himself and the first one he created was Adam.

Of course that's just what the bible says which was written male humans, so this is exactly what to expect they would come up with.
However, once you start disregarding the bible, you have actually nothing left to base your beliefs on. God could be a being with 300 limbs and no gender or a puddle of mud or a flying spaghetti monster ... heck, god could be "an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together" ! To my mind it is a bit silly to assume a being like a deity would look anyhing like us or that it would have a physical shape to begin with. Think about it, almost everything god is said to have done is defying the laws of physics, so IF there is a god, I highly doubt s/he would be subject to physic laws. And that means no need for ears to interprete sound waves, no eyes to interprete light waves etc. and certainly no penis/vagina since there are no other being s/he could copulate with.

reply

The seahorse has words for you. :-)

reply

If a god exists, it doesn't have a gender. It's completely asexual.

reply

It just chooses the fairer sex, because it likes to look at itself in the mirror.

Well what are the use of my brains if I'm tied up with a dumb cluck like you?

reply

Deity. Deus. Two. Ying and Yang. Male and Female. That's my opinion.

reply

Exactly, we are made in God's image, yet we are not gods ourselves, because we are only each half the image.

reply

" Why is God a woman, why I cant digest that one thing. I worship god because he is HE and SHE, the last thing i want to know in my life is that God is a WOMAN"

If you got the impression this movie had an agenda as far as implying God is actually female, I don't think that was the intention. At the end, "Rufus" pretty much clarifies God has no gender and is much bigger and more significant then that.

You haven't been paying attention. They say in the movie that God is neither He or She and it all depends on perspective.

Also to all the guys in this thread bitching about God being a man, I'm not sure if the most hilarious is that you think there is a father figure in the sky who watches over you or that you think God has a penis but it's all pretty pathetic.

I think God is a post-op transexual midget. Makes a lot of sense when you think about it.

reply

I like to think of God like with giant eagles wings, and singin' lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with like an angel band and I'm in the front row and I'm hammered drunk!

God should have been Joan Osborne and not Allanis

Personally, I think God and Satan are a single entity that is a combination of male and female. Who is which depends entirely on the time of the month and the amount of alcohol consumed :D

God's a man, god's a woman... blah, blah, blah...

Next thing you'll be arguing about is what color are unicorns... Jeesh.

We're not bad people, Mac. We're just underachievers who have to make up for lost time.
