I think we should just let it go. I'm 78 and been married 55 years.  You can't possibly offend me.  Not sure what was said, but I'm not concerned about it.   If it matters, I'll pm it to you, and you can decide for yourself. I just try not to offend folks here.

Awesome brother, let's drop it and please never mention genders to me again. I know two genders, boy/girl and that's it. I'm the new guy here, I've been trying not to offend anyone also. 

But apparently, Alive is quick on the draw and told me to apologize to you. And you say there was no offense! Lol! Now that's funny! Maybe Alive owes me an apology?! Eh?

This is not the kind of interaction needed on worthy.

 

What? I'm not allowed to ask someone if they are a Christian? I clicked all over his info drop down and no religion is listed. I didn't know. I asked. 

That is my offense?!

Please receive my apology. Perhaps I misunderstood your intent.

Thank you.

There's a difference between, 'confused christian', and, 'non christian' and I didn't know what he was/is.

Now I forget what me and other one were talking about. (facepalm)

I didn't see what you wrote when I wrote to you, so you should keep Alive's message to heart.  BTW if you are a born again Christian with the Holy Spirit dwelling within you, technically you are a "we/they".  Just for the record.  And they do "BTW" fit into this discussion of the names of things we call each other.  Jesus is a we/they for he is an essence of three and I have joined the group.

Oh come on Brother. You just said that you wanted to drop the gender stuff. Don't try to to technically me into more gender nonsense by putting a biblical spin on it. Please! I got in trouble for it yesterday, one of the mods freaked on me for nothing so let's stay away from it before we upset him again. 

I have a fine relationship with the Holy Spirit and our Lord. As good as it should be? No. As good as it gets? No. But I am growing and learning and am so far, unperfected. But I have a lot to look forward to! We all do, Praise the Lord! 

I've posted some pretty wild Testimonies over in the Testimonies forum. I must be doing something right because the Lord keeps doing things for me! Right? 

Yeah I deleted that post too fast, that was a mistake. It wasnt offensive either. I asked you were a christian.

About the gender thing with languages, (and my seven years of French at school):

Many languages use gendered pronouns and grammatical gender systems where nouns, adjectives, and sometimes verbs are classified as masculine, feminine, or neuter. Here are some examples:

1. Romance Languages: Languages like Spanish, French, and Italian have grammatical gender. For instance, in French, "il" (he) and "elle" (she) are gendered pronouns, and nouns like "le livre" (the book) are masculine, while "la table" (the table) is feminine.

2. Germanic Languages: German has three genders—masculine, feminine, and neuter. Pronouns like "er" (he), "sie" (she), and "es" (it) reflect this system.

3. Slavic Languages: Russian, Polish, and Czech also have grammatical gender. For example, in Russian, "он" (he) and "она" (she) are gendered pronouns.

4. Semitic Languages: Arabic has masculine and feminine forms for pronouns, verbs, and adjectives. For example, "هو" (he) and "هي" (she) are gendered pronouns.

5. Indo-Aryan Languages: Hindi and Sanskrit have grammatical gender. In Hindi, "वह" (he/she) can be gender-neutral in writing but is often pronounced differently for male and female contexts.

6. Modern Hebrew: Like Arabic, Hebrew has gendered pronouns and verbs. For example, "הוא" (he) and "היא" (she).

These systems often extend beyond pronouns to influence the entire grammar of the language.

Ok, I'll buy that. But other one isnt from those countries, he's in the USA. He says he has 3 genders. Now that just dont compute in English, lol. 

Unless he was being sort of facetious for whatever reason and was approaching the conversation as a normal human being but leading up to it through an obscure point somehow? In which case he...should have did more clarifying and less vagueness. 

And I don't  even know that's what he was doing.
