(Lights up on Yvonne and Larry sitting in their living room. On the floor, Mikey draws on a piece of paper.)
YVONNE
I don’t see why God can’t be a woman.
LARRY
God created ”man” in “his” image.
YVONNE
Just because they don’t have gender-neutral pronouns in the Bible, doesn’t mean God is not a woman. Or, for that matter, gender-neutral. Why does God have to be anything?
LARRY
God is a man. Jesus was a man. Our minister is a man. God is a man.
YVONNE
Whatever. (She sighs.) What are you drawing there, Mikey?
MIKEY (showing his parents)
It’s a picture of God… and that’s his penis.
(Yvonne glares at Larry. Larry grabs the drawing and crumples it up embarrassed. Mikey has no idea what just happened. Blackout.)
