In some cases maybe? But isn't it more sexist to object to
someone refering to God as a HE or SHE? All that
GOD/GODDESS, HE/SHE stuff doesn't seem like respect to me. Seems more like an EGO TRIP!

It doesn't matter at all. Call God a He, She, Gay, It or whatever. Makes no difference because God is just another fake creation by man.
Humanity has created many Gods, for example – Gods of Olympus, Ancient Egypt, Babylon and so on. Most of us are atheists about most Gods humanity has created, except the latest craze, the current God in the Bible. Learned atheists have also rejected this version of a God, but some hard-core believers still hang on, presumably until a better image of God is created by man.
Faith in God seems to be nothing more than humans attempting to run away from reality, an excuse to avoid thinking and evaluating evidence. Faith is just an emotional escape and really just a substitute for opening your eyes to reason.
Believers talk about God creating man in his own image. It’s in the Bible so it’s fact – get a grip, get real. The facts suggest the exact opposite. Man created God in his own image. I’m sure humanity will disregard this God, as they have disregarded all previous Gods, it’s just a matter of time before humanity creates another God that better serves their emotions and image.

God Of The Bible Is Always Referred To as a He

No, God is what you need God to be. I believe that when the Bible was written it was the male form that was used, due to the fact that all the power was given to men. I think that God is both male and female, after all God is the Creater.

I think it depends. I believe in multiple god/dess(es). So, I just refer to the gender of whomever I am addressing.

not really. see in Islam(thats my religion) that reason we refer to Allah as a He is because there is NO Word in arabic that means "it"
So, really we dont think of Allah(god) in terms of He or She. we just Refer to him like that.
