Aloysius Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 they're gender neutral. gender neutral things appear in the masculine. it makes sense. maybe you're just too drunk to understand or maybe I'm crazy stupid and don't know what the heck I'm talking about. either way it doesn't matter, in substance they're gender neutral, and angels are depicted as beautiful without any real gender identifying features. they shouldn't be portrayed as females because they would be identifying a gender, but they could be portrayted as fairly quoteunquote masculine with beautiful qualities and youthful appearance.

[/quote] Well whatever. They aren't men or women. I think they're eunuchs based on eastern tradition. And FYI I only had 2 beers. However the pills are another matter. But, yes, I think maybe I just don't quite get the theological basis you're explaining. Either way, we can agree that portraying them as fully men or fully women is wrong and bad and not pretty.
