But the original question isn't obvious. I think the answer depends on exactly what concept you're dealing with. Shryskull asks:innerbrat wrote:The question 'Is God a sexist concept' deals only with the first one - whether or not the concept is seixst, not God Himself (or Herself). I thought that was obvious.
This isn't sexist. The existence of a male/female creator isn't sexist; it would be an observational fact. The belief that human males and females should have equal rights isn't dependant on the existence / non-existence of such a being.I was thinking (perhaps you women can answer this too) do you consider the idea of a male (or female if you are male) creator god a sexist concept,
So to answer the question, the existence (or belief in the existence) of a gendered creator is not sexist.
But Shryskull basis his judgement on the Judeo/Christian beliefs:
Dealing with this concept, the concept that this creator god follows the actions in the bible, I add that the concept of God of the Bible is sexist.I do, since God "created man in his own image" and god is perfect, etc. And after Eve let's Adam eat the apple God enslaves women to men for all eternity, the male as the ultimate reflection of god, what could be more sexist than that? And what exactly does it mean by god is male, does that mean he can have children if he had a female counterpart?
Creating a male human first isn't sexist. Adam being first doesn't imply that he's superior. I can create two objects and have the second being equal or superior to the first.
However, saying that Eve should serve Adam (without giving the same requirement to Adam) is sexist. Therefore, believing in such a concept is sexist.
