Okay, I think I now know what to say. I will quote what you have said and add corrections in
brackets [ ].
'2000 years ago, the Hebrew culture had become sexist [[[yes and no]]] and overly conservative [[[
]]]. Many of the religious leaders at the time were hypocrites [[[Yes]]] who thought more highly
of their own authority and righteousness than they did of God [[[true]]]. One of the goals of Jesus
was to help humanity become more sensible [[[more sensible yes, but the main reason was to
offer atonement for sins]]], and to recognize that God is at least as much a Mother as it [[[IT? you
referred to THE ALMIGHTY GOD OF THE UNIVERSE AS AN 'IT'?]]] is a Father[[[NO, when the bible
{words that are inspired by God} mentions God, it says 'He', not He/She, or It]]]. This was
represented indirectly through the Virgin Mary, and directly through the Holy Spirit[[[ Matthew 1:18 'Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit." The Holy Spirit basically "went into" Mary and gave her a child. The Bible says nothing about God "doing" the Holy Spirit and the Spirit having the baby through Mary. ]]]. The Jews of the time found this
idea to be
revolutionary and offensive, which was part of the reason they wanted to crucify their own
Messiah[[[ No, the main reason was because Jesus told the Pharisees that He was kin of God, the
Pharisees thought he was a blasphemer. ]]] . Even though most Christians today don't consciously
realize it, the Holy Spirit is God's female side. You can't have a Father, and a Son without a Mother now can you [[[Correct, but Mary was the mother]]] ? Obviously that wouldn't be a proper family. Anyway, that's actually where the modern Christian idea of the Holy Trinity comes from[[[Totally false]]]. The Father (male), the Son (androgynous), and the Holy Spirit (female). God is still called "he" because the sexist culture persisted even after Jesus's death, and still does to a small extent. Thanks to the early church fathers, most Christians tend to be light-side worshippers, and thus place the greater emphasis on the male half of God. Even I have trouble thinking of God's feminine qualities sometimes.
The Holy Spirit, resides in us, (christians) when we accept the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross (and eventually His rising from the grave [ because hell could not accept Jesus's sinlessness]) that he made for us as an atonement for our sins, and as a bridge to God, across the chasm of our (mankind's) sinfulness.
I hope I have explained it all, if you have any questions, please ask them.
