    What about the Bible ,does that agree with the JW theology ?

    Therefore Angels are sexless ,yet we find in the Bible on a few occasions where they have lusted after women ,taken a mans form and had sex with women.

    .On one occasion producing hybrids half human half angel.

    On other occasions they just wanted to satisfy their sexual desires.? their sexless aren`t they ? Why would they even have sexual desires .?

    There is just so much wrong with this belief on so many levels .

    What`s the difference of an Angel taking on a human form and being able to impregnate a woman with sperm so that she is able to give birth ,and that of the the creator Jehovah ?

    If an Angel can transform itself into a human being with all its bodily functions isnt that a creation ?

    How many creators are there.

    Surprisingly or is it ? that none of the Angels took on a womans form and lusted after males to have sex with them .

    I wonder why ?

    Jw`s claim there is no male or female in heaven yet they always portray them with beards .? Doesn`t that suggest they are all males ?

    What about all of the women who claim to be of the anointed and have gone to heaven ? Or are going to heaven who are JW`s where are they in WT literature ?

    Nowhere from what I have observed .

    I look forward to your comments either pro or con .

    WOW! And to think I used to give a sh!t about this stuff!

    It's the kind of thing I'd have wasted hours (or days) "researching" (of course, only with WT Publications).

    Humanity is growing up and putting all that foolishness behind. JWs and a few other fundamental Christians, are the only ones left who believe that stuff. Give it another 100 years and all those imaginary stories of invisible angels will be a thing of the past just like Zeus the God who lives in MT. Olympus.

    Maybe sooner considering we finally figured out to create synthetic life in 2010. It's only a matter of time before we create our first human. We are already creating bladders, ears, living beating hearts. Soon, we will be the Gods who create life.

    Then why do they all have beards?

    Never mind, I've seen some sisters who who, given enough time, could front for ZZ Top and no one would know the difference.

    Further thought, why didn’t any of these angels become either sex, and then have homosexual or lesbian sex?

    I've never heard of angels being described as "gender neutral", but always male, including God.

    Male.

    Living forever.

    With no females.

    Which makes Heaven sound worse than Shawshank.

    There's been quite a few barrel chested muscle sprouting angels that are decidedly male in the pages of the WT. If I remember right, the WT of course has explained it, as simply the bible using the male gender to represent authority. Because God is male right? He's the big authority figure. For that matter, why did Jesus have to be born a male?

    You cant depict a spirit so the illustrations are something humans can relate to. Just like the streets of gold, pearly gates are something that can be imagined.

    So when they materialize they look like ken dolls when naked?

    Paul seemed to have said something about a spirit person's body, how it differs from a human's body.

    1 Corinthians 15:35-39; 42-44

    35 Nevertheless, someone will say: “How are the dead to be raised up? Yes, with what sort of body are they coming?”+ 36 You unreasonable person! What you sow is not made alive unless first it dies. 37 And as for what you sow, you sow, not the body that will develop, but just a bare grain, whether of wheat or of some other kind of seed; 38 but God gives it a body just as it has pleased him, and gives to each of the seeds its own body. 39 Not all flesh is the same flesh, but there is one of mankind, there is another flesh of cattle, another flesh of birds, and another of fish

    42 So it is with the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised up in incorruption.+ 43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised up in glory.+ It is sown in weakness; it is raised up in power.+ 44 It is sown a physical body; it is raised up a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual one.

    Paul later said that flesh and blood could not inherit the kingdom (the heavenly kingdom was what the anointed in the first century had been promised).

    But I tell you this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit God’s Kingdom, nor does corruption inherit incorruption.

    Scientifically, since human bodies seem not to be able to survive in the heavenly environment, it would seem that angels, Jesus in heaven, the anointed or God, do not have human flesh and blood bodies but ones that can survive in the different environment of heaven.

    I think that they are all spoken of as males, not because they have some physical indication of such, but because they all have authority over that of humans. In the bible, only males have the authority, no females. (As to whether the bible says that women will go to heaven as anointed, some Christians will debate that)

    That’s my thinking, some on JWN might feel that discussion about this is pointless since the bible is not a reliable source.

    But I am not discussing from that basis, but what jws and other Christians might believe.
