ever think that maybe god's a She not a He?

we're all so used to the concept that god is a man, but what if he isn't? or should i say, what if she isn't?

it's not that i take issue with the long held belief that god is male, even though there's none of us who can truthfully say we've seen the anatomic proof, but there seems to be so many more potential reasons why god is a woman.

every once in awhile, something goes wrong. not just wrong, but horribly wrong. how often do we hear the phrase 'god hates me'? probably a few times. but do men really hate? for most of them, give them a beer and a pizza, and it's all good. no one can hold a grudge like a woman, let's be honest. i'm a woman, i know this.

would a man really make it so much easier to get pregnant than to *not* get pregnant? heck no! if god was a man, then birth control would not be necessary. that's a female thing. a 'you better not do this or else' deal. if god was a man, women would need to take pills in order to *get* pregnant, not to prevent a pregnancy.

would a man really create a week of the month where women are cranky, bloated, PMS-y and don't want to have sex? nuh-uh. that is counter-productive for the male, because that's a week of the month that he has to put up with a woman who may be ready to kill him at any given moment.

would a man really make it so men are so turned on by spiked heels and lingerie? no! both additives are annoying. heels hurt the feet and can easily injure the legs. lingerie is just plain uncomfortable. these two creations are obviously the by-product of a woman -- no man would be so vindictive as to do that to his own species.

now, is that empirical proof that god is a woman? no. but until we see the evidence with our own eyes, it seems to be a very good assumption.
