Then why are you denying my statement? Sexuality is not purely an attribute of physicality and material composition. The Biblical laws like Deuteronomy 22:5 or 1 Corinthians 14:35, and statements like "In that day the Egyptians will be like women" (Is. 19:16) or "gentle and quiet spirit" (1 Peter 3:4) would not make sense otherwise.
>DEPICTIONS OF SPIRITUAL ENTITIES IN A MATERIAL WAY ARE NECESSARILY CRUTCHES
Okay, so you do believe that formlessness and exhaustive and eternal invisibility are necessary attributes of spiritualness because you believe the opposite can only occur with the physical. So why are saying you don't believe that. Which is it?
>THE SIMPLE WITHOUT PARTS STUFF IS IFFY AT A GUT CHECK, WON'T EVEN PROBE
Divine simplicity is a necessary attribute of God and spiritual creatures and creations. God especially must be God through and through without any parts, where otherwise one can say, "this part is a thing that can exist a part from God Himself," or "God is bound to how this part of Him interacts with Himself or another part." The whole reason we can say God is "not material" is because of this simplicity. Material creatures and creations are made of many parts and elements, binding them to the interactions of those parts.
>IF YOU'VE EVER PLEDGED ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG YOU'VE FORFEITED THE RIGHT TO SAY THIS PHRASE AND MEAN IT
THERE ARE NO MERE SYMBOLS
I said "mere symbol" contrasting to the Biblical descriptions of the angels in Ezekiel being their form and ontological reality, as well any symbols God intended to be ascribed from that reality. Don't put words in my mouth.
