I wanted to comment on my use of gender specific terms when writing the above comment.

I do not believe God is male or female. God doesn't need gender. God is not a biological creature, so therefore God doesn't need to reproduce.
So all you people who have a "Mother Goddess" or "Our Father", if it gives you comfort so be it. I think if God chuckles about human activity God would chuckle about that.
