Do angels have sex?

The comparison links divine sons who reproduce with angels who do not marry, but the quotations leave the identification and scope of those categories partly unstated.

Textual conflict: Weak tension; The alleged conflict needs substantial assumptions, such as treating an omission as a denial or figurative language as literal.
Importance: Supporting; A supporting event, teaching, or biographical claim.

The allegation equates divine sons with angels and heavenly nonmarriage with inability to reproduce, neither equivalence being explicit in the quotations.

An editorial assessment of the quoted passages. Importance describes the stakes; it does not increase certainty. Reading order weighs both.

Sons of God father children and fallen angels face judgment

That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

Angels visit Lot before the townsmen surround his house

And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground; And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant’s house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night. And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat. But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:

Understanding the contradiction

Genesis 6:2 and Genesis 6:4 describe sons of God taking human wives and fathering children. That is sexual reproduction, but these verses do not explicitly call the fathers angels. Jude 1:6-7 describes angels abandoning their proper place and compares their punishment with sexually transgressive cities. The connection makes the comparison relevant without directly identifying every actor in Genesis with those angels.

Mark 12:25 says resurrected people neither marry nor are given in marriage but resemble angels in heaven. The claim concerns marriage, and specifically angels in heaven; it does not expressly describe the physical impossibility of sexual activity for every angel. Genesis 19:1-4 identifies Lot's visitors as angels and describes townsmen surrounding his house, but the supplied range stops before any sexual demand. It therefore cannot independently establish angelic sexual behavior. The evidence presents a tension between marriage and reproduction among divine figures and the heavenly model of nonmarriage, rather than a direct statement that identical angels both can and cannot have sex.
