So are Sons of God good or bad?

Both.

You’re saying Gabriel dropped the hammer on Mary?

Did the evil men happen to check if the angels had genitals? Rember, they were angels IN THE LIKENESS OF MEN. They aren’t humans. Get it?

Do angels produce sperm? Do they have a heart, a circulatory system, or ANY bodily systems humans have? No, BECAUSE THEY AREN’T HUMANS. They have been shown to take the form of humans, BUT THEY AREN’T HUMANS.

Let me put it this way...

Angels are CREATED beings, not PROCREATED beings. No angel/human sex. Absolutely ridiculous.

Let me put it this way. That sentence lacks any semblance of logic.

BTW, the homosexual men and boys banging on Lot's door wanted to have sex with the angels staying overnight with Lot.

You are welcome to your opinion but, for heaven's sake, at least try to make sense.

If you actually KNOW the make-up of angels assuming human form, you are the only person on this planet who does.

Please share your vast knowledge with us.

FWIW, many theological scholars believe that Genesis 6 is about fallen angels mating with human women. What makes you superior in knowledge to them? Is it your knowledge of angel anatomy?

The idea of preflood Neanderthals or other hominids and homosapiens that were wiped out for their debauchery (not dissimilar to what occurred this Oct 7) except for Noah’s line is interesting. Makes the fossil record consistent with the Bible.

What's ridiculous is your dismissal of any theory re: Genesis 6 that disagrees with your own very unique conclusion that fallen angels cannot mate with human women because they are created, not procreated.

Did you invent that one all by yourself?

Why would a created angel, who wasn’t created to procreate, need sperm? Please answer that question.

——>FWIW, many theological scholars believe that Genesis 6 is about fallen angels mating with human women.

Maybe ask on of them why an angel would be created with the ability to produce sperm if they weren’t meant to procreate, you know, to be fruitful and multiply.

Why would angels, who aren’t humans, have human sperm? Please share your knowledge on that. Thanks.

Who they THOUGHT were men, but they weren’t. They only took on the FORM of men. (no sperm 😁)

You are making silly anthropocentric assumptions about angels when you actually know nothing about them.

And the term Bene Elohim doesn't actually mean angel. We use the term "angel" when speaking of a supernatural being because we just have no knowledge of that kind of being.

Your conclusions about their ability or inability to mate with human women based on whether or not they produce sperm is beyond arrogant because you know nothing about the supernatural realm and the beings that inhabit it.

Given the direction of this discussion, perhaps you will also wonder how little Cupid-like cherubs can have sex with women given that their genitals are so tiny.;-)

Please stop. This is embarrassing.

Fascinating topic. One day we’ll know the truth.

You’re response cracked me up. I know how you feel. When I’m ready to shut down, I’m ready to shut down too. As brothers in Christ, we can agree to disagree. Thanks! :)

Yep. When my day is over...it is really over.;-)

As an aside, I've been meaning to ask about your name. Do you own a Vespa 300? They are a true work of art.

I have a motorcycle (2022 Honda CRF 300 Rally), but my dream is be a Vespa 300.

I don’t own a Vespa but I was looking at them a few years ago. You are so right......they are a work of art, especially the 300, yes. I have always had motorcycles, raced motocross, just sold my Yamaha MT07. But I have always wanted a Vespa Scooter. You just get on and go. Feet on the platform, not pegs. No clutch.....just go!

I’ve never even ridden a scooter. Sounds like you admire them like I do.....:)

So, do angels have an anus? Guaranteed the evil-doers had no idea. They saw what they thought were “men” and assumed the rest.

If they have an anus, they must have bowel movements. Do angels use toilet paper? Maybe a bidet?

The answer, of course, is no to both, because, ANGELS AREN’T HUMAN. They are created beings, never intended to procreate. Maybe your asserting that angels are shape-shifters? Can be anything they want? LOL.

It is YOUR assumptions about angels that are ridiculous (can have sex with humans and produce offspring).
