I'm a Christian and I sometimes refer to God as a He (our Father, etc.) but in my heart of hearts I do not believe that God has a gender (or needs a gender). When I say "He" I am usually referring to Jesus.
Most importantly, the stories in the Bible are written from a societal perspective and many are not to be taken as historical accounts or literal how-tos. Was homosexuality in the Ten Commandments?

It was not, but are the ten commandments the only true part of the Bible?
And yes the stories are societal perspectives inspired by God, meaning I personally take them to truth.
