The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The uber male Christian god who is all powerful but sacrifices humans for his purposes.

As Hitchens often said, religion is not just man-made, it is male-made. You can see it very clearly in how women are subordinated (or even, in many cases, chattel).

A gendered deity makes no sense to me unless he/she is limited to organic creation the same way we are.

Which no religious tome claims. Quite the contrary, in fact.
