@lednabwm All depictions of god are male when we know that the female is smarter, works just as hard as the male, raises the next generation, and feeds the whole lot.
@ianmnoone @zleap @trainman Thanks for the clarification...
@ianmnoone @zleap @lednabwm So I should have said "most gods" are male. Thank you.
Why would any god(s) require a gender...
@lednabwm Perhaps gender is useful in depictions, statues, images, etc.
Well, that comment was well hung...🤣😂🤣😂
@trainman @ianmnoone @zleap @lednabwm
Gender is not a thing for a thing that is not.
@PetraPanda @trainman @ianmnoone @lednabwm
According to the Hacker manifesto, we exist without gender

Thanks for this, i find it fascinating even though I am not religious, it is good to be aware of cultural differences.
I have heard of Kali (oddly via Temple of doom film)
So a question on that, is the religion in that Hindu or Sikh?
@zleap @lednabwm @trainman ToD nominally depicts Hinduism, albeit an extremely lurid, bastardized version. Sikhism is a monotheistic religion, so in English they'll usually just say "God", and in Punjabi they may use honorifics analogous to "The Lord", "The Creator", etc. It's a religion specific to Punjabi ethnicity, though there are a number of white converts in the US.
@zleap @lednabwm OK, I'll put a checkmark in the Female Gods column. Thanks.
