Well if the god we know is male, there is probably a female god too.

After all god was originally called Elohim.

That's plural.


Not sure your point Raven. Archaeology has shown there was a misses Yahweh, Asharte, Ishtar whatever you want to call Mrs Yahweh.

In fact El was the head of the pantheon of the Philistines. He was a god of the Levant.

For the Record...

God was formulated in the Middle-East (at the time where the likes of Europe, Asia & Africa were still cultural backwaters and considered something like the 'outer-suburbs' of fringe-dwellers).

God represents the 'all-powerful' Individualism of Religious expression.

...much like the Emperor is of Military might.
...much like the President is for Politics.
...much like the King is for Ceremonial Entertainment
...much like a Champion is for Sport

:Note:
Some 'industries' have attained Individual empowerment, but lack 'a people'.
While others are 'a people' but lack an Individual representative.

...but this is where the Southern Hemisphere comes into being.

Now funny you mention that word.
As for when Islam & Israel 'unite'.
It will be the 'star' between the Pillars of Faith
IstarI (Istari)
Wink

...but it will take a few world wars before that.  Cheesy

There are variations on a theme of the nature of God.  Even the Abrahamic "God" of Jews, Christians and Muslims.
Even within Christianity itself.
But one thing they all agree on is that God is "male" in the sense of being the Father of all things.

You are astonishingly fixated on having 'God' as male.  Has me stuffed.

I reckon (alleged) creator is a better expression.  Why must the sky fairy be of any gender?

Ah, very much yes. Roll Eyes

If you want to have this conversation, let's get a grounding. When do you believe the Jews became monotheist with no Mrs God?

How do you know? God is jealous of other gods so there must be more than one.

Psalm 82:1
God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.

Why wouldn't he have a wife. They probably had a falling out which is why he is such a monster on the OT

Quoth the Raven "Nevermore"

Raven would rather ask questions that may never be answered, then accept answers which must never be questioned.

Ishtar had many temples, how many did El have? Of course he was jealous. Grin

You need to read my short story on how Gabriel came to be an Archangel.. at the prompting of his wife.. aka God... but he didn't know they were married yet... but always had been...

Heavenly time is complicated.... all that is and will be and was.. is all the same....

It seems heaven is not that different to earth. Both have wars and therefore the things that create them.
Revelation 12:7–10
War in Heaven
So much for God's prescience unless he planned all the evil and if that is the case he is the greatest evil, if not, he's incompetent, not prescient.

Yeah - but in my story we settled things peacefully.. with a little deception... and God Herself chose the path of Free Will and allowed Lucifer to run his race, and only when he took illegal possession of Her home did she act ..... She's an honest God.... but that Heavenly Time thing can be so confusing... that all happened thousands of years ago but God is just now giving me the case to sort it out?  This all that is, was and ever shall be stuff is mighty confusing...

I published it somewhere online... some love it... but memory fades.. it's the air down here on Earth where we Archangels take a sabbatical and work in the slums for the good of all mankind.... and we don't remember that we always have been Archangels and are and always have been married to God - aka Jenny for Jenovah...

I should've paid more attention in Angel School... no wonder I was tenth in a class of twelve....

I just re-read it myself after a long break and I laughed....


Here it is:-

http://www.writerscafe.org/writing/Grapplersama/1878233/

I wanna hear Longie savage it... he writes teenage fiction, after all... (glurg)...

"Arya looked at the sun setting and knew the moon would soon rise.... and bring with it the dire situation of being alone again.... so alone.... mum and dad did not understand.... she was going to the Star Fleet regardless..."....(Ho-Hum).....

Jesus - Amazon bought two of my stories.... no publishing offers yet... just looked.
