     So, is  God a Woman like Ariana Grande suggests?      I love Ariana's song and her fearlessness in releasing it.

Are these words important to us? Of course not.      People should have the right to be and express whatever and whoever they believe they are, and shouldn't have to be subject to ridicule or injustice. In my experience, I have often wor...
