Joe Hoeffel, feminist theologian
Montgomery County Commish Joe Hoeffel, in an email to supporters Monday declaring he was exploring a run for governor as a champion of progressive values, invoked God with a feminine pronoun. It was little noticed amid the news that he was polling and criticizing the other, more conservative on social issues, candidates.
"We are all children of God, and we are all equal in Her eyes," Hoeffel wrote (emphasis mine). "Our job is to make sure that our laws reflect and protect that equality."
