Some call God "he" and some call God "she." But why would God be either? What does God need with reproductive organs? Who is God having sex with? And are there little baby Gods running around somewhere?

God is definatly male. Read the bible. In the old testament, God is a total dick.

I'm not sure you really want a correct answer. Any way, the bible says God is a spirit. He is used when sex is unknown. It does not refer to God as having a gender. Many people twist this to be what they want. Instead of what is. Some things won't be revealed until the new beginning. Some things may never be revealed.

the hebrew language does not have a female gender to acknowlege GOD as a woman. HE does not have one gender, and HE does not need or have reproductive organs. this is all without BIBLICAL EVIDENCE. Knowing GOD as a friend helps alot.

As far as the Muslim tradition is concerned God is not a gender, nor does he resemble human beings. God is the creator of forms and is not bound by them. Simple.

Surely, you are not this naive. Surely, there is more to you than your sexuality, so that you can see beyond the bedroom. If not, you have much to learn. God is our Father, based on his authority as the father of mankind. We are to look upon him as we would a father. To take it a bit further, since you are so very naive: "Father" is a concept we can understand. Hence, God is our Father in a higher sense.

Who says that using gender pronouns has anything to do with sex? I know that when I refer to "God" and "Goddess" or "He" and "She" I am referring to the masculine and feminine energies of the Divine that are manifested in the aspects of God and Goddess. Not a literal "man and woman".

The second creation story in Genesis connotes a woman in the Godhead. God in the first creation story is Yahweh; God in the second creation story, beginning at Genesis 2:4(b) has the name of Elohim. Elohim is plural and it is in the second creation story that it says "let us make man and woman in OUR own image." The "us" and "our" certain connote a woman in the Godhead.

God doesn't have a gender. When Jesus was given a human body he was a man because...well he had to be something. And let's face it, at the time even less people would have listened to him and respected him if he was a woman.
But (and yes I know this isn't relevant to this discussion but I want to say it anyway) the way he viewed and treated women was quite revolutionary.

God represents Authority and MAN is a symbol of authority, when Jesus came to this earth he was born as Man, because man was created first and God told Adam(the first man) to governed over everything!

Good question. I think it is easier to refer to Him (God) as a man or female b/c it is more intimate....more human like. It sounds better to say Him or Her as opposed it "IT"..... wouldn't you agree? You worship Him or Her how you want!! Either way, God is Awesome!!

In the bible god is only referred to in the male.Hardly surprising as it was men who wrote it
