To overcome men’s exclusive ownership of God Language, female and male metaphors need to be employed, and finally, we have to use a transgenic language or a gendertranscendent language and concept of God. Maternal metaphors are to be found in the Holy Scripture, e.g.: Ps. 109 (110):3; Mt.23:37 and Gal. 4:19. Although in the countries where the vast majority of the population is Orthodox, the Feminist Theology is almost non-existent, theologians must be proactive to avoid a possible future crisis. I would like to underline that, although it is important to use, in our theological texts, both female and male metaphors when we speak about God, the issue of God language (or the so-called inclusive language) must not be confused or used as a justification for the ordination of women, which represents an entirely different issue."engCreative Commons Copyright (CC 2.5)theological languageandrocentrismmaternal metaphorsfeminist theologyAγία Σοφία (“Holy Wisdom”)Community ethicsSocial ethicsSexual orientation/genderIntercultural and contextual theologiesFeminist theologiesChristian denominationsOrthodox (Eastern, Oriental)Article
