Bryan, Ogun and Tina discuss Morgan Freeman's assertion that God can be real and an invention. Freeman says, “Life is more about what you believe than almost anything else. That’s why God still exists.” Also, do we think of God as feminine? Why or why not? Why might a feminine aspect of the divine be important? We'll discuss Scriptural support for this idea, as well as what other religious traditi...
