There are feminists on the list (at least one). We're (or I'm, perhaps)
just not interested in looking silly.
And personally, I'm not interested in the Christian god, and when I do
feel like anthropomorphizing the divine, I know many female names by
which to address it; I don't feel the need to make *that* particular
name any less male.
