I don't think it's off topic, you are trying to discuss god are you not?
Not in general, no. The OP was specific in the aspect of god that's being debated in this thread.

Male and Female, two halves to existance of life on this earth. So when we reffer to God as "he" is this not blasphomy? You are in effect calling God 1/2 of somthing are you not? Personaly I feel that God exhibits many of the behavioural aspects of a males, but is not in some ways. "Do not make any graven image." By using "he" would this not be to some extent a graven image? I understand the us of the word "he" is not intended offensivley, and that it is just a way of more casualy reffering to God. However it is in my opinion dissrespectful. If you dissagree, please explain why I am not closed minded.
