The Sumerian "sar" or "divine year" lasted 3,600 years and may be the distant basis for the biblical claim that a year to God is like a 1,000 years to man. Its curious how this word carried on thru the ages representing kingship as a divine mandate, Czar, Caesar...

Except that in Latin, Caesar is a family name meaning hairy.

And Czar is just a distortion of Caesar.

I find refering to God as "she" grammatically offensive.

G-d, being genderless, can equally be called he or she. We note gender more when she is used, cause we are sexists, and use the masculine when no particular gender is justified. Using she is a protest against this usage.

Its also a way for a religious person talking about G-d to distance themselves from fundamentalists.
