Why are angels always males?

[Gwaithmir]

Female angels are cool.

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.

I guess you are an atheist and so am I.
It is abundantly clear to me that all religions are man made. I think the only difference between religion and mythology is that religion is believed and practiced by live humans while a mythology use to be a religion. That’s a case of evolution of religion, survival of the best fit (cylinder fits into round hole, fitting into circumstances) religion.

But that will be billions of years from now.

4.9 billion y into the future.
The age of the Sun is 4.7 billion.


But it is still fun to talk about these religions.

For example, there doesn’t seem to be much detail about angels in the Bible but we still have to keep in mind that the jewish god made Adam first.
Is that just some accident? Did the genderless god just flip a coin and randomly chose to make a male first? Or maybe the jewish god is male and there are some female gods that the Bible doesn’t mention? Maybe the jewish god considers himself, the male, the superior gender.

If we are going to just claim for no reason that angels are genderless, then I could claim Adam and Eve aren’t humans. Perhaps they are hermaphrodites and something entirely new. They weren’t mammals, they weren’t fish, not birds, not reptiles, ...

I know that. I was talking about how much time our sun has left, and it seems to be an estimated 5.5 billion years until it runs out of fuel. But just like our planet has had 5 mass extinction events so far, it will have a few more before all life dies in that future time period. It is highly unlikely humans will exist that far out.

I believe that the Earth won't be habitable for most life after only another 1-billion years. At that point, Solar energy will be increased by 10%.

I think if you want to escape a supernova, it is possible but it requires a lot of planning.
Some people suggest putting people in hybernation and in a space ship and sending them to another solar system.

I would suggest robotics. There is no need to send any cells or DNA or anything biological.
Send a laboratory spaceship that just has AI and lots of data about all human achievements.
The job of this AI is to locate a suitable planet, land on it, and build cells, build various plants and animals and release them in nature.
If the spaceship gets lucky, it will find a planet with already existing lifeforms, plants and animals. It just needs to build some humans, teach them about science, etc.

Perhaps future humans can release many such AI ships.

They look very female indeed!
Maybe angels are "non-binary"?

Biblical angels are trippy as hell as Ezekiel 1 points out.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se...ersion=NIV

15 As I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. 16 This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like topaz, and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. 17 As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not change direction as the creatures went. 18 Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around.

Dem's not angel, dem's succubi.

Almost certainly not.  The ANE had no reefer.  None. It was like a contemporary trailer park. Easier to get liquor and meth and opiates. That's the cesspool that abrahamism arose from, and still resides.
