And just as a trivial, yet informative aside to this discussion, the Egyptians did, as a matter of fact, believe that the universe was created from a divine orgasm. Ptah, IIRC, gave himself a handjob and brought the universe into being.

Makes you wonder about what, precisely, were the duties of the priestess known as the “Handmaiden of Ptah”, doesn’t it? 😃

I always thought God did Mother Nature anal.

I mean… the fruit is on the bottom.

Just out of curiosity, what would those qualifications be?

Well, first I’m not female. Second, I’m not vocal or passionate enough about women’s issues that most people would consider me a “radical” feminist even if I was female.

Finally, even if I was a “radical feminist”, I wouldn’t be participating in an effort to convince people that God is female, since most days I’m not a monotheist.

I was going to let this go with the same chuckle the rest of this thread provoked in me, but for some reason I looked at it twice. And you know what? This is a _really good question._
