Through out the Torah (known as the old testiment to christians) and I believe the bible as well, god is referred to as he. Many of the people I know get quite upset over this as god is something greater than gender. God came before gender and cannot be categorized into either one. Therefore this is in a way sexism and the people I know think that the texts should not refer to god in either way. What are your thoughts on this? I know that much of Orthodox Judaism is still fairly sexist as they take the texts literally. What do you believe on the matter and as applies to christianity as not many people here are familiar with Judaism.
