HE IS...OR IS IT SHE?

I was reading Fr Richard Rohr's morning meditation, and came across a point that I keep observing about the gender used in spiritual literature. Per Rohr, "We can name them all with masculine words (as we have done up to now), we can name them with feminine or neutered words if you wish, but in both cases you can miss the precise way that they relate to one another—and thus miss the major point."

There is the truth of the matter...for it does not matter what gender we use, God either is or God is not...can do all or not much...is all-encompassing forgiveness or dicey, guess-why, punishment. That is the decision we must make. Do we believe God is, can do all, is forgiveness or is just another harsh disciplinarian...not whether He is or is it She? That is just our ego-based reasoning mind, quibbling us to distraction. 

We must go beyond the reasoning mind to get to Truth.

Thank You.
