Thom...gods are very often ascribed a gender....Whether or not that means that a god actually -IS- a certain gender, or what gender means to a god, is laregly irrelevant, as you yourself have so adeptly pointed out- because they do not exist. Reproduction and sexuality are not interchangeable with gender, nor do they have any bearing on each other in and of themselves. If a god is refered to as "He", it is a he, if it is referrred to as a she, it is a "She".
(I wish Shell would show me whatever she knows about reproduction...lol)

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
