What would be an appropriate sacred pronoun for God?
I am interested in finding an appropriate pronoun for God, not gender-based because God is male, female and probably a lot more. Something that all people regardless of religious affiliation could use. I will give 50 pts. for the best answer.

First, I don't believe you can give 50 points but I don't do this for the points. There's already a word but people use it and it's truly a profanity. It's adoration, everybody uses it right and left and we're only suppose to use it for God. God is Adoration.

"He". i mean, there are only limited pronouns in the world and you can only use the once in existence. Why "He" even if its gender base? well:
1. THe Bible refers to Him as He, so its tradition, not because He actually has a gender.
2. Proper English grammar dictates that you must use a masculine pronoun when refering to an unknow gender. For example, if you told me your banker was coming, grammatically correctly, i must say "is he coming?" thats true for all languages, like Latin uses masculine when gender us unknown. alot of languages use the masculine form to refer to a group of mixed-sex people. its grammar.

I think the best way to go would just be to say "God" or "The Lord". With pronouns its easy to mistake who you are referring to. If you want people to know you mean god, you should say god.

If your looking for a name it's Jehovah.
Psalm 83:18;"That people may know that you,
whose name is Jehovah,
You alone are the Most High over all the earth".

Your options are very limited if you eliminate sexually specific pronouns. "It" is really the only option you have, unless you want to use "they"; neither sounds too appealing.
