Moocar, somewhere, and I've been searching unsuccessfully for it, I have read a list of verses from the Bible which portray feminine aspects of the Old Testament god. They include God speaking of (it)self as having a womb, as giving milk, as having a female bosom, and other hints of a female aspect, but these are never, in my experience, spoken of in any church. I think it would be very interesting to discuss those verses, if I or someone else can find them. As you indicate you are a Christian, (although I am not, I have no interest in deconverting people) you might find in that list, in spite of Paul, that there may be a way for you to relate better as a woman to the god you believe in.
I've seen many apologies for Paul's writings, but he is the greatest offender, IMO, regarding how Christianity came to treat women.
