Most sects of Christianity teach the trinity doctrine. God is three persons in one "triune god"; Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Now, let's look past the fact that this is really a polytheistic view of god and think for a moment about the family dynamics we have going here...

Now if you want a fundie to go ballistic, one of the more effective methods is the mere suggestion that god or any facet of god could be female. "Heresy," they will tell you. "Woman was created from man. Man was created in God's image..."

Now, allow me to point out that any family wherein there is a child requires a male and a female to have procreated. Let me also point out that the Holy Spirit is supposedly a nurturer and comforter, traits typical to women.

Therefore, I can only conclude that either the holy spirit is a female or Jesus was adopted and God the Father and the Holy Spirit are homosexuals.

The Judeo-Christian tradition actually acknowledges (at higher levels of the teaching) a feminine aspect of God. The word in the Hebrew is Biral, translated a Sophia (wisdom) in the Greek. The trinity is not polytheistic. Much like Hinduism, it is henotheistic (one divine seen through many lenses). Besides, your point assumes that a deity requires procreation to produce an offspring, as if the division 9even property wise) of an amoeba would not do.

The words Father, Son and Holy Spirit are anthropomorphisms. It's God using language that we can understand to describe the relationship between the 3 persons of the Trinity. One could use the terms 1st person, 2nd person and third person of the Trinity. None of the persons are male or female. God has no gender. God is Spirit. God has no physical body. It's one God, 3 persons and 3 natures. One of those natures(the nature of the 2nd person of the Trinity) took on a human nature at the incarnation. That human nature was male(namely, Jesus).
No, a child does not require a father and a mother, not where God is involved. It's called a MIRACLE! The time will soon come when mankind will not need a mother and a father to produce a child. That's just the direction that science is going.
God the Father and the Holy Spirit are not homosexuals. They have no sex or gender since are spirits and have no bodies.

Male and female are merely positive and negative aspects of ourselves in human form. Gender only exists in the physical form, not in spirit. Let me point out that God is a power without gender. Spirit has no gender. Your conclusions are a bit comical, my dear.

I usually don't propose marriage to random strangers, specially online. But this question was awesome!

God can't be female by the way. Women are much better at organizing things than men. The Bible would have been more clear, and Moses would never have spent a full 40 days on a mountain to simply get 10 little commandments.

in case you pay interest to homosexuals they say they're born with it, it really is a lie, because the God doesn't create them that way and then make a regulation forbidding similar. christians attempt to inform them that their behaviour is extremely sinfull and thereby galvanize our lord god to anger. because of this Paul is saying that God gave them as a lot as practice those vile affections or lusting after their own sex. we would have that similar lusting interior us, if we are delivered as a lot as believe you're born that way, yet also if one confesses Christ that He suffered for those similar sins of the body and others outdoors the body, and are available to Him with a contrite coronary heart and humble spirit, Christ is prepared to forgive those sins if every person has practiced similar and in the experience that they ask he will create a sparkling spirit interior us,and make room in our hearts for His be conscious. yet in the experience that they decline to pay interest, then sure God supplies them up, and we having warned them a pair of times and they nonetheless do no longer pay interest, why waste our breath?

there is no god but if in theory hypothetically one were to speculate how could one compare humans to gods that is far worse than apples to oranges is it not . and if man was created in gods image how ever stupid as that seems to me why can't man create as his prototype? You now begin to realize that the lies of god get into bigger lies to support the first lies . this fantasy has one resolve forget the false teachings of a myth called god and live as a rational human being .
Peace out

You have some serious holes and leaps of logic in your thesis.

This is what you call junk science.

If you were writing this for a comedy show, it would be almost what you call a non sequitur.

if there was really a God, I certainly hope it's a she, but since the whole idea of God is just a fiction, created by humans, so humans can give their imaginary creation any features they prefer. and their imaginary version of God would accept these traits, since, after all, virtual beings can not really object to the minds manipulating them.

You start off with telling people to ignore your straw man...and then claim victory when you beat it up?

Pathetic.
