Now, considering how almost everyone that is not a fan-girl of Jeavus McBeaver has a pure, unrivaled hate towards the poor soul, they often call him a 'girl'. I differ from this, as pinning him to a particular sex, is being sexist, and a huge insult to the sex you're calling him to. I simply refer to him by male pronouns by default, since making effort to refer to him as an 'it', is an insult to my dog.
...Putting the above jokes away and returning to the subject at hand... I hope that pastor is joking.
