If you’re concerned about the sex of God then you are missing the point.

Only people/places mentioned in here are from Northern Ireland which is not Ireland, but Great Britain.

Judaism has a concept of “the feminine” sense of God in the Shekhinah. Otherwise this seems like a throwback to the feminist wiccan Starhawk stuff of the ‘80s.

This seems to repudiate him pretty cleanly:

Galatians 3:28 (New International Version)

28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Sounds familiar, but Google pulls up nada. Pagan?

The book’s front cover adds to the mystery and the message with photos of Our Lady of Medjugorje – one of the most revered figures in Irish Catholicism – alongside SDLP leader Mark Durkan and Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams.

Medjugorje WebSite ♥ Our Lady of Medjugorje ☼
Marian Medjugorje Apparitions and Messages of the Blessed Virgin Mary

For quite a while now, in Medjugorje (Čitluk, Bosnia-Herzegovina) six trustworthy witnesses, testify firmly under oath, that since the 24th of June 1981, the Blessed Virgin Mary, or the "Gospa", as she is affectionately known as here, appears to them every day up to the present....

....All this time, from the beginning of the apparitions up until today, there have only been five days when none of the children saw Our Lady. Our Lady didn't always appear in the same place either, nor to the same group, nor individuals, nor did her apparitions always last a specified period. Sometimes the apparitions lasted two minutes, sometimes an hour. Neither did Our Lady appear at the children's will. Sometimes they prayed and waited but Our Lady didn't appear until a little while afterwards, unexpectedly and unforewarned. And sometimes she appeared to one and not to the others. If she hadn't promised an appointed time, nobody knew when she would appear, or if she would appear. Neither did she appear always to just the aforesaid visionaries, but to others also of different age, stature, race, education and walks of life. All this suggests that the apparitions are not a product of the imagination. It depends neither on time nor place, nor desire nor the prayer of pilgrim or visionary, but moreover on the will of He who permits it.
