According to the silly tales made up by primitive Middle Eastern goatherders, the all-powerful sky wizard takes a male primate form (just like humans on one little planet amongst trillions -- what an incredible coincidence!), and so is his magical carpenter "son." That makes Penis-Havers more important than Vagina-Havers! Gee, how convenient!

... What a steaming pantload!
