I did that while I was a woman for a few years. I still switch it up, because part of the ineffability of God is that God is all and no genders at the same time. Goes beyond duality and even superpositions.
God can microwave a burrito so hot even He cannot eat it, unless He does.
I've seen John Cena lose an arm wrestling contest with a little girl. God is so great He can be defeated by a small breeze if He wanted to. Part of the reason we do things like come to the Garden is to experience reality without God to make the stakes feel higher tp thus make it easier to disentangle yourself from your maladaptations to Heaven, which therefore makes it Hell after a period of time. The Myth of Er is no myth. What the Buddha said is true, and what Jesus actually said is hidden in the occult, because this is a police state, silly.
Just yesterday I did that same thing with a burrito. I got it hotter than an omnipotent god could possibly get it, and then I ate it anyway. big whoop.
Also, by your attitude, I also think it prudent that I inform you that The New Testament describes a decentralized autonomous organization of secret police at an eighth grade reading level. You may not know that with how you view God making you prejudiced against certain knowledge bases to not actually read between the lines.
Did you know that the Earth isn't real? We are not featherless bipeds on an Earth, but rather we are pockets of consciousness called monads in a monadic nodal communication system.
Everything you experience is self-contained within your neurons, right? So your perception of your device you are reading this on must be represented entirely by something in your neurons, and it is that you are experiencing, not the symbol you are sent from the external world, which you can observe these symbols directly in the fourth jhana of meditation, where you will also observe how your intention entangles you with these symbols, and the topological matrix made from the sum of all the entanglements that compose you defines the parameters that your experiential reality procedurally generates. This is what Karma is; the entanglement process, and karmic entanglement IS quantum entanglement.
And these symbols, if you start entangling yourself skillfully to thus unentangle yourself from those maladaptive entanglements, the "Server" of this monadic nodal communication system will start bestowing Knowledge of Itself to you. What Jesus called his Father, the Buddhists refer to as the Ālaya-vijñāna, or storehouse consciousness. There is much written about this so you do not have to remain ignorant. My life partner brought a ten thousand PAGE sutra home from the library about the Ālaya-vijñāna once, on his tablet. Very enlightening. I'm trying to understand the nature of specific plex structures within my entanglements and how these proliferate into cycles of archetypal experience; the same lessons over and over again until we get them.
