The minute that god is a 'he' or 'she', then god is only a ‘Superman’; no different from gods worshipped by Greeks or Romans. How does Christianity differ from other pagan religions? Not by much.

Humans have a psychological need for a parent figure. So humans invent a human like god. It worked. From those parables came lessons on life – how all could be productive members of society. Back then, worship of ‘super nanny’ was easier for most to comprehend. In reality, life and death comes from things they did not understand and that are today measured by tools such as statistics and biology. There is no ‘he’ or ‘she’ in god. But those concept exist in pagan religions.
