In other languages this can be Miguel or Mikhail or Michel. Plenty of women are given the same name, though written in a feminine form to avoid confusion. For example Michelle.
So the names of the genderless angels are used for both sexes.
I don’t understand. How has it been determined that angels are genderless?
Religion is nothing more than mythology that is a blip in human history. There was no written or organized religion 200,000 years ago. And when the sun runs out of energy and collapses or expands, and fries our solar system, all life on earth will die. But that will be billions of years from now. But long before even that happens, humans as a species will be long gone, just like the dinosaurs. That is not being fatalistic. Even after my blip of a life ends, I'd like to think my species can extend it's ride as long as possible. But there still in the end is no utopia or afterlife.
I don't care if people want to argue that Angels are solely male or female or both, it is still a projection of human desires in comic book form.
