Angels Have No Wings, Says Catholic 'Angelologist'
2013-12-21
[An Nahar] Angels exist but do not have wings and are more like shards of light, at least according to a top Catholic Church "angelologist" who says the heavenly beings are now back in vogue thanks to New Age religions.
Then how do cherubs get around?
"I think there is a re-discovery of angels in Christianity," Father Renzo Lavatori told Agence La Belle France Presse on the sidelines of a conference on angels in a lavishly-frescoed Renaissance palace in Rome.

"You do not see angels so much as feel their presence," said Lavatori, adding: "They are a bit like sunlight that refracts on you through a crystal vase."

#2  Angels don't have bodies. So where do you put , see, or use wings when you don't even HAVE a body? They only exist where they ACT. They do not have bodies. Their wings are their Powers, not chicken parts.

They have six wings( powers ), not two. And you will probably never "see" an Angel anyway. And if you did, you probably wouldn't like it. There are nine species...eight of them won't bother with you anyway.Only the lowest even want to have anything to do with you.

Most angels find you a little disgusting....mudballs in a meatsack. Try not to get involved. ( you can thank me later).

#1  OK, no wings. Got it. Now can we get a definitive ruling on how many can dance on the head of a pin?
