Why God is not a girl...

[Oldandeasilyconfused]

Hi all, there it goes: God is a man.

Well,yes, the Abrahamic god is a male,although he originally had a wife. (Asheroth)

Judaism, Christianity and Islam are unusual in not having a female deity,as have most other religions,especially in ancient times. In Christianity, the lack of a female deity has been traditionally addressed by the Marian cult and female saints.

Did God Have a Wife?: Archaeology and Folk Religion in Ancient Israel, (Eerdmans, ISBN 0-8028-2852-3, 2005),[1] is a book by Syro-Palestinian archaeologist William G. Dever, Professor Emeritus of Near Eastern Archeology and Anthropology at the University of Arizona. “Did God Have a Wife?” was intended as a popular work making available to the general public the evidence long known to archaeologists regarding ancient Israelite religion: namely that the Israelite god of antiquity (before 600 BC), Yahweh, had a consort, that her name was Asherah, and that she was part of the Canaanite pantheon.
