16. what if Gibson refered to the
Holy Ghost as an 'It'? i.e. "I truly believe in the Holy Ghost. It is fun to take shots with at parties." If I were a Christian (am I am not) I would think it would be weird and unnatural to refer to the Holy Ghost (God) as an 'it'. Seems cold to me to refer to a spiritual being who you are supposed to have intimate relationship with as an 'It'. I dont know, that is just me.

now what if he called the Holy Ghost a 'She'. Now that would create quite a debate, but that is for another time. However, I see no reason to argue with someone to call God a 'He' or a 'She' as long as they realize that God cannot be a man or a woman.
