I am interested if angels are simply myths that have a real effect on our culture wouldn't ANY talk of them be classified as PROPAGANDA, or is it
O.K. to manipulate through fantasy just so long as it is in the name of some sort of Equality based utopia, rather than a Patriarch based utopia.
Spare me. Mythology has always been a reflection of society and their accompanying mores at that particular point of history. There has seldom been
equality where myths are concerned, as there has seldom been equality in society as a whole.
That is simply a fact. Not manipulation. Not
propaganda.
I am sure if you were to make up Angels then you would make them male and female, if I were to make them up I would make them male and Female.
No surprise here. Mankind has always based its mythological beings and deities after his own image.
Why? Because it is always easier to explain
away the unknown based upon what we know: Ourselves.
The thing is that they are not made up they are real and God made Humankind Male and Female but with angels it isn't so. These Female Angelic beings
are surely a result of the fallen angels tampering, and they are an abomination.
It is interesting to note that only males are deemed worthy enough to be angels, whereas female angels can only be an abomination.
The fact that female angels have stork wings and encourage abortion is an obvious analogy to motherhood. Since women have the unique ability to create
and nurture life, it comes as no surprise that men seek to control that aspect of a woman's life. By denying women autonomy over their own bodies,
men have effectively relegated women to the role of incubator.
By extension, women who seek equal footing with men are deemed an abomination for no other reason then deigning to rise above a position of
submission.
Why else start a thread declaring female angels with wings
(seriously, are there any other kind?) are evil, unless you're content with
perpetuating the myth that women are inherently evil?
