Asexual? (was Question about New Testament)

Sort of. God hasn't got a body to be male or female with (that's 
Catholic doctrine, I think - God is spiritual, not physical). While he 
does have the position of "father", he doesn't need to sire children so 
distictive sex is unnecesary. If it helps, I'm *sure* modern doctrine 
says that angels are asexual.

Ummm... The Bible says that Adam was lonely and God gave him a friend 
(Eve), IIRC. Besides, two sexes allows reproduction, that God does not 
need but life on this reality does (since we're supposed to grow and 
reproduce). This is doctrine, I think. (*Please* bear in mind I'm not a 
student of the Bible. My words are to be listened to with extreme 
caution).

I'll reserve my own opinion in the matter.

Hope that helps,
