Yeah, it probably does belong in net.religion, but I don't read it.  I am an 
atheist so "God's" gender is irrelevant to me.  To those of you to whom it 
does matter, I remember reading in the Bible a line about gender - "I am 
neither he nor she; I am who I am."  All the Bible totin', Bible bangin' 
types who traditionally put women in second place thinkin' God was a manly 
man and women are not on the same par ought to spend some time readin' what
their god said to them.
