Yes, he can. And then he'll make himself so he can lift it.

I'm not particularly feminist, mostly because I disagree with the name. However, I do believe in the equality of the sexes. I use the male pronoun when referring to God mostly out of habit. I do not believe God has a sex, it just seems bad to refer to him as an "it", implying a lack of personage. I do not mind if people refer to God as a "she". Mind, I'm referring to the God I believe in, which is the Christian God. Outside of that, I really don't care what people call their own god. Just my 2cents -Keith
