Bristol Live readers react to Dean of Bristol's support for plans to rethink God's pronouns

When the Dean of Bristol, The Very Reverend Dr Mandy Ford spoke inn support of the Church of England's plan to reconsider God's gender - saying it makes sense "theologically" - it provoked lots of comment from readers. She said the move could help inclusivity - but "isn't really a change at all" and that "actually God has no gender".

It comes over reports of a new project exploring making God "non-gendered" with calls for "more inclusive language".

The potential move and the Dean's approval sparked fierce debate among Bristol Live readers, prompting over 240 comments on Facebook.
