But how come there are never women angels? Maybe with names like Daria, Melissa, or Belinda?

Black Labs can be technicians?  Yeah, that's the way I first read it.  I must be tired.

Oops...the only reason I even mentioned "black" is that a big part of the story is the discrimination the lab technician faced despite being a major player in the success of the medical treatment.

My initial guess is that these names aren't gendered. And if they are, the genderization of them probably occured after the fact. Hence why masculine and feminine varients of these names exist: Michael/Michelle or Gabriel/Gabriella.

A way to disprove this would be to show that the names were already around and were already masculine before they were adopted by angels as their title.

Every theologian you can name says that angels are genderless.

Also your etymology for "Gabriel" is incorrect.

Quote:Gabriel (Hebrew: גַבְרִיאֵל; Aramaic: ܓܒܪܐܝܠ) is a given name derived from the Hebrew name "Gabriel" meaning "God is my strength" or "God is my strong man". 

What about the fallen angels having sex with earth women and those women bearing children? Can't do that without a penis.

Why not? God knocked up Mary without a penis.

to me.. (extremely visual person) providing a 'complete sentence on a trivial, or self explanatory matter) is to speak condescendingly or speak down to you. remember connect the dots work books as a child? how some were so easy you could quickly see the pic? it's like how f'ing stupid does the artist think we are that we cant see the whole pic that we need to connect his dots to draw out a his specific clunky rabbit.

the same here. I gave all of the elements of the answer allowing you to compile those elements into a completed form without treating you like a moron.. that way you can build your own answer and get it right, leaving you with very little to argue if you use all the elements i provided.. so if you don't like the answer, you only have yourself to blame.
