You are in any angry mood; and you know in an angry mood no meaningful discussion is possible. I don’t discuss to win; but religion is part of my “self”; for that I have suffered a lot; but I don’t mind that.
When you are out of this mood; and you want to have a friendly discussion; we may do that and others are also welcome to participate. Then you may choose any of the above items; but there will be no debate; there will be only discussion open to everybody.
I like your blog.
I only made my comments on the thoughts expressed in the post of your blog, please.

“Muslims (and Christians and Zoroastrians and Jews) refer to their god as if that god were male.” Unquote
I can only speak for Islam/Quran/Muhammad.
Quran mentions clearly that genders are not applicable on His personage:
[112:1] In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful.
[112:2] Say, ‘He is Allah, the One;
[112:3] ‘Allah, the Independent and Besought of all.
[112:4] ‘He begets not, nor is He begotten;
[112:5] ‘And there is none like unto Him.’
