I do not know about the DNA of God, but he is a man and has a penis, and man was created in God's image.
"Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth." 27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." - Genesis.
Note that Genesis II in which woman is made from the rib of man is not a sequel to Genesis I, but rather, a different narrative itself.
Furthermore, while it can be true to say that we human beings tend to ascribe masculine and patriarchal qualities to God, it is not necessarily the case that God does actually possess the qualities of either sexes. God himself does not declare to us that he possesses a penis. Why would he even need one?
Proven in the above Genesis quotation.
But it is not real, and it is not true.
Is a lie 'good?'
Why is 'gender equality' not true? Even the Bible proclaims it in the Galatians quote I earlier presented and in the equal creation of Male and Female in Genesis I. When Paul speaks of the man as head is he really proposing doctrine or continuing a social convention established prior to doctrine?
Have you met many women?
My experiences are the complete opposite -- probably because I do not come from a society versed in liberal propaganda.
So you come from a society versed in the Dark Ages? I make no apologies if my 'liberal propaganda'* as you call it is rational and sound.
* By the way, I am not a 'liberal'. My family is highly Conservative and my father abhors Socialism. I myself am Centrist.
But man is created in the image of God.
So is woman. Read above the Genesis I quote which clearly portrays an equal creation of Male and Female in the image of God.
Paul opposed many things that were societal trends, such as homosexuality, fornication, alcoholism, etc.
And he is also continued many social conventions. What's your point?
If God is against gender roles, why didn't Paul oppose it?
Because Paul is human, and while a saint, still flawed, and still a participant of culture and therefore obliged to follow custom.
Because he is a conservative and because He was spoken to by God. You do not get spoken to by God -- and if you did, you certainly wouldn't be saying what you are saying now.
That is ridiculous. What you are essentially saying is that if God did speak to someone and that someone spoke of gender equality then you would not believe that they are God's witness. How do you know that those who preach gender equality are not instruments of God's will today? You don't.
They are on equal standing with God but subject to men.
"the head of the woman is the man" (1 Corinthians 11:3)
You kinda forgot that in the Risen Christ we are all 'made new' in being.
"There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free-man,
male nor female, for all are one in Christ Jesus." - Galatians 3:28
