What "horse shit’ is ‘that’, exactly?
And, do you refuse, absolutely refuse, to engage with other people’s so-called “horse shit” because it does not align with your own person “horse shit”?
Or, for some other reason?
God is actually neither a he or a she. The bible places God as a He and so perhaps it is within our comfort zone to think in terms of God as a he.
Perhaps we have been brain-washed in a sense to believe or feel that way. How difficult it can be to change our perspectives and our emotions when it comes to God. It can be an ongoing process or learning practice to view God as simply BEING. Those were very patriarchal days in the bible. No way would God be a female.
For someone who grew up without a father, it would give one a very protective and comforting way of being.
After all, look at this awesome Universe the creator caused to be. So, psychologically speaking, God can be the strongest father figure and Mary, the blessed mother, could be the strongest mother figure for someone who had no mother or far too much of a mother.
In a sense, I think we put limits on this Creator when we think in terms of a he or she. It is still difficult to get away from though until we really begin to grow up and become independent or inter-dependent. We can just sit quietly in this Presence and wait.
‘you’ people can think in absolutely any terms to feel comfortable, or to be within your own comfort zones, however, and obviously, what is actually True can feel uncomfortable, and be out of some people’s comfort zones, but this NEVER means that it is better to stay withing your, so-called, ‘comfort zones’.
If ‘you’ KNOW that God is NOT a “he” NOR a “she”, then what reason would ‘you’ have for informing others and teaching children that God is a “he” or a “she”?
If ‘you’ have literally been made to feel that following, and teaching, a Falsehood, and a very obvious one at that, to stay with a so-called ‘comfort zone’, then ‘I’ would suggest that ‘that’ is a prime example of being “brain-washed”, or more correctly, having been ‘indoctrinated’, to ‘believe’ progoganda and a Falsehood. (The term ‘brain-washed’ is another Falsehood that people had been indoctrinated to believe. But this is for another discussion.)
Not difficult at all. In fact, the exact opposite is True as it is absolutely simple, easy, and quick to change your perspective, and Naturally will do anyway when ‘you’ find out who and what God is, exactly.
Unlearning, learned Wrong teachings, may well be an ongoing process for some, but it is certainly not difficult at all.
Very, very True, but I will add that it was the “men” in ‘those days’ who would not have allowed a description of God to be “female”, or as ‘you’ meant, in no way would have allowed God to be female.
Maybe, it would all depend on how God was being described. One could also ask, if God was called a “she”, then for someone who grew up with a mother, would this give that one a very protective and comforting way of being, as well?
Do children, ‘growing up’, sense a very protective and comforting ‘way of being’ or not, from how the adults around them are behaving, or misbehaving, instead?
This makes no sense in ‘the way’ it is written and expressed here.
- Who and/or what is the so-called ‘creator’, which has supposedly caused this Universe, which ‘you’ describe as ‘awesome’ here, exactly?
- How does this statement and claim of yours logically follow from your previous sentence/s, exactly?
- Are you suggesting the Universe began and was caused by something else?
So too could a unicorn and a mermaid. Again, ‘you’ adults can tell children all sorts of stories, but how ‘you’ are behaving, or misbehaving, tells and expresses a far more telling Truthful story.
Any actual Truly loving female, mother, aunty, grandmother, sibling, teacher, nurse, or any other female in society, can also be the so-called ‘strongest’ ‘mother figure’ in someone’s life than some story about some other human being ever could.
If you are talking about the actual Creator of the Universe, then obviously you are putting a limit, and an absolute False limit at that, on the Creator, Itself, when you think or speak in terms of “he” or “she”
‘you’ can sit there, wait, and not ‘grow up’ and mature if ‘you’ like.
