    Okay… so follow my logic. God made man in his image, then some time later, made woman in mans image. Therefore, we should at least expect God to be as different from a man as a man is from a woman. I would in fact argue that we should expect God to be even more different, as going from a mortal being to a different mortal being is less of a jump as going from a immortal omnipotent being to a mortal being.

      Well, considering Yaweh is the Demiurge and is trying to steal credit for what the Monad is and does, I would say that it is likely that Yaweh is gendered, unlike the original creator.
