Der Lustige Astronaut

I'm reading an article about Ann Lee and the theology of a female Christ. The author compares her to the Public Universal Friend but insists on seeing the Friend as a woman. This is I think bad history not simply because it ignores the Friend's gender identity but because it ignores the theology. The Public Universal Friend's followers understood the Friend to be genderless just as they believed god is genderless. There is an interesting comparison here for sure but I think any comparison has to take into consideration the genderlessness of the Public Universal Friend.
