Default Do you believe in angels? And what do you think they realistically look like?

Do you believe in angels?

If angels are real, I don't think it's possible that they'd have wings or be half man half bird. I think if they're real they'd have to be either faint shapes of light or actual humans, but the wing part has got to go.

It's just too fantasy world'ish to have wings.

How exactly are you drawing the line...?

Many would see angels with fanciful medieval elaborations because of their religious indoctrination. That is a reality within the "*Christian drama".

(*The Christian drama is a large shared spiritual experience that is meaningful only to those who subscribe to it.)

I once attended a pentecostal church service when I was looking for spiritual enlightenment through the Christian church. I felt a powerful flash of thousands of angels singing and rejoicing at this service. It perked a sense of infinity within me. Most people are not receptive to such visions because they have a a powerful intention to experience physical life as a separate sentient being.

Maybe our perception of other entities evolves with our beliefs and understandings; like on the movie, "What Dreams may Come."

Angels have forms that are not percebtible to the human eye. The forms they have are not "forms" in terms that human beings and other organic flesh envelopes would conceive as form. That which has been mythologized as always comes through the filter of expectation of the receiver.

I saw a guardian angel at least 3 times . She looked lake a normal human female . I did not know who she was until much later . The first time she was staring at me through a store window , distracting me from some one else that might of caused trouble for me . I thought she wanted me for a job . When I got out side she smiled and walked away . The secount time was at a slide show on the power centers of the 4 corners area ( AZ, NM , CO, UT USA ) It was at a new age book store in Scottsdale AZ . She made me focus my attencion on her , the entire slide show . After I let her walk out of the store , then I left . I saw her again at a Zen Buddist demo. I ask her if she had went to the 4 corners area , she said no . ( mid 90s ) desert rat

Smile Delusion!

Angel is delusion.
It is only manifestations from your subconsciousness.
However, you can enjoy with whatever you believe in this world if that makes you happy and fulfil your ego wishing.

Pure energy perceived as light flowing in fractalized patterns in, through, and out of their energetic form. Every color of the rainbow and all colors outside the perceivable spectrum. Beautiful.

Those are my thoughts on the matter.
