Literally one of the oldest Christian positions about God is that God is not a dude. This should not be controversial. Folks like Saint Augustine of Hippo would agree wholeheartedly with the assertion that God has no gender binary. This is because if God has a gender that gender is “God.”
It’s also 1 being but 3 stacked in a coat at the same time, so the lore is a bit hard to keep track of
Hear me out: none of this matters. Just another distraction from the world being run by greedy psycho billionaires
So the GOP is upset that some people believe in something that has no scientific backing, eh?
I thought God was Alanis Morissette?
Just a slob like one of us
Blee blee blahblah blooo
Early computers were non binary
Bring back trinary computers.
Unironically, yes
“MY GOD HAS A DICK!! IT’S BIG AND VEINY AND THROBBING AND NOBODY’S GONNA TELL ME DIFFERENT!!!” - Evangelicals, apparently.
Turns out they also don’t like it when you say that. It’s like pick a lane people
Uh oh, Mike Johnson better contact his son…
Retconning all godesses makes Yahweh an incel.
Already a song about god’s dick
Was gonna post that haha great song too
Arguing over fictional characters is super constructive
While I agree that part is silly, at least Talarico is using his belief to try to implement much-needed change.
Lotta folks that actually bother to vote are Christian, so I think he’s Texas’ best bet at turning blue.
Screeching to the world over an issue you don’t think is important while ignoring the reality, that even though it’s stupid as fuck its still a problem in our reality, is also pointless.
Did you change any thoughts in here? Did you move the needle? No. Non applicable noise. This article does however represent an irl shift to monitor.
So your comment you see, was much more so pointless and not constructive.
Ironic posting intensifies
Did you change my mind with your comment? Absolutely not. And I’m allowed to comment about if I want, so I did. Go take your preaching and shove it up your ass, pretentious asshole.
The pedo protectors can say whatever they like. Judging by the last 100 or so special elections, the independents have finally woken up and are done with the GOP.
I hope you are right, but I doubt it… this is texas after all, they will shoot themselves in the dick and call it a circumcision
You were unmindful of the Rock that bore you, and you forgot the God who gave you birth.
Deuteronomy 32:18. This is the lot that would insist that men cannot give birth, right?
That’s a really poor translation. It sounds more like God gave the “you” reproductivity.
That one is very clear. Semitic scripture uses parallelism liberally for emphasis. Both “yalad” and “chuwl” mean birth, but yalad is masculine as in “fathered” while chuwl means “gave birth to.” Deuteronomy 32:18 very explicitly paints Yahweh as both father and mother of all Israelites.
Hell, yeah. A linguist enters the chat.
So from Semitic languages, to Latin—which also can translate feminine, masculine, and anything between as three states jusr fine—to period-subjected variations of English, up to the modern day take, it should’ve been kept quite clear. But sometimes over a few thousand years it may have been skewed. At least enough to open up interpretation in a way that interpretation aligns with one’s beliefs or desires.
Well, I am shocked that this could happen to an Abrahamic religion /s
Okay… so follow my logic. God made man in his image, then some time later, made woman in mans image. Therefore, we should at least expect God to be as different from a man as a man is from a woman. I would in fact argue that we should expect God to be even more different, as going from a mortal being to a different mortal being is less of a jump as going from a immortal omnipotent being to a mortal being.
Well, considering Yaweh is the Demiurge and is trying to steal credit for what the Monad is and does, I would say that it is likely that Yaweh is gendered, unlike the original creator.
Further to the point, the only canon contact he’s made with humans was as… wait for it… a burning bush.
The bearded old dude was after Rome finally decided that Christianity was cool, and they decided to update his pfp to Jupiter. And it stuck.
Either Eve is trans (being made from Adam’s rib) or Adam ist.
I am not a religious person (but was raised catholic) - I wouldn’t have issues voting for him based on that article - he seems far better informed regarding the word of christ than any of those screeching republican harpies, and seems to have the best in mind for the citizens of his state.
I have no opinion on if God is NB. But he’s very clearly in a same-sex union with Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Throuple
The Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit, gaymen.
God is dating his son???
they just call each other daddy
That really isn’t that weird in the grande scheme of things
or particularly unusual for deities
God is a power bottom in the throuple with his son and a ghostly entity
I upvoted and then I took it back just in case any of this stuff is real.
I’ve had a pastor argue it a number of years ago and it did make sense at the time, it was based on how God referred to using a feminate city name or something similar
I would have thought the Holy Spirit would have been repping the feminine style in the throuple.
Nah, God is a Trinity. Therefore they’re nonbinary. Also, since the religious right doesn’t want to imagine God as using their obviously male penis in any way, shape, or form, they’re asexual.
So God is a Thruple, got it.
Newsflash, dipshits: God doesn’t have a penis or a vagina. God isn’t human.
So you’re saying God is so non binary that they are non gendered?
God is nonbiological so no gender. Or all genders. If God is in everything, then there are some bacteria with 23 or so sexes, so God possesses genders beyond the scope of human consciousness.
Sorry about the correction, but that number isn’t right on two levels.
1: bacteria didn’t have sexes. Sometimes they will exchange plasmids via a direct pilus or will pick up strays in the environment.
2: that number is often cited from a book describing certain slime molds (which aren’t molds) as having that few, when almost every species we found have something in the 100’s. But what I think is cool is that some species of actual fungi have something like 72,000 compatible sexes.
Correction is appreciated. It even works out better if God is an oversexed slime mold.
Yes, this. And an attack helicopter.
Ungendered. Degendered. Omnigendered?
Polygenderous
Infinary.
One of the basic problems with theists is that they have no idea what God is.
“God is love.” In what way? God is just an emotion related to a chemical reaction in the brain?
“God is all powerful.” Can he microwave a burrito so hot that even he can’t eat it?
“God is omniscient.” If everything in the future is already known, then what’s the point?
It just goes on and on. Either God is some vague impossibility, or he’s exactly the same as a human male, somehow. But a human male is not the same as God, so that can’t really be right. But nobody can even give a real framework as to what he could be.
If you can’t describe God no matter how hard you try, then what the hell are you believing in? That’s the basis for ignosticism.
i just believe in a giant space crustacean it’s easier and funnier. and crab sandwiches taste better than jeezits.
And iirc, they are referred to using terms for both male and female in the original language of the text.
“Our god has balls”
God is a hermaphrodite. There. I said it.
So is my cat, who I worship, so that checks out.
Cat in question, who is very deserving of worship.
Cock n’ ball n’ pussycat?
Born with both testicles and a uterus. All male on the outside, all female on the inside. Kinda neat, but unfortunately very expensive to fix. It had to be done though, 1) because you should fix your cats anyway, and 2) because apparently it causes a lot of health issues if you don’t fix it, including a very high chance for cancer in that region.
Hopefully spayed and neutered pussycat
Yep, it was a very expensive and invasive procedure but it had to be done. We were going to regardless since you should always fix your cats but in addition to that, having both testicles and a uterus can lead to a lot of health complications in cats. Most commonly a far higher chance at getting cancer in that area.
No, that’s angels. The God of Abraham would be better defined as having no gender or sex whatsoever.
