I was just curious as to whether you believe in ANGELS or not or if you've had any experience with them such as seeing or sensing them in some capacity.
Thanks in advance

Absolutely not. Ditto the tooth fairy, leprechauns, Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.
Angels do not enter houses that contain dogs, statues or pictures of people.
However, once after listening to the Qur'an and upon going to bed - I could feel and see there presence. I looked at the ceiling and there was a very faint ball of light circuling the room. This only happened once though and it scared me somewhat.
When I was a kid, there was an irregularity on my ceiling, that looked like a very evil man with a beard to me. There are some who would say that the devil had invaded my bedroom! :wink:
I want what Raul's smoking. It must be good stuff.
I don't believe in angels. But I do believe in really nice people, and that is enough for me.
Wilso, you can't. He smoked it all obviously.. :wink:

My grandmother claimed to see what she called a "spectacular angel" in her mother's bedroom right at the moment she died. Also in the room was her mother's cocker spaniel and numerous pictures of relatives. I guess only Muslim angels are picky.
Any religion that doesn't love dogs can't be good for you.

Of course, it was the Angel of Death. He has no choice but to take her soul regardless of what is in the room.
I'm talking in general terms, regular Angels will not enter a house with dogs because they are unclean. You can always keep it outside.
From Raul-7's reply we find that: the Angel of Death has no free will and that Muslims have been missing out on the great pleasure of having a three dog night. (Look it up)
Joe(some of the dogs I have owned have been angels in disguise)Nation
Pleasure? Isn't that a reference to one of the bitter-coldest kinds of actic temperature nights?
You talking about the pleasure of listening to the 70's rock group?
Or does the prospect of huddling agianst frostbite with three dogs seem pleasurable to you?

I'm sure it would be if you were freezing to death!
Yes, I do believe in Angels and though I haven't yet seen one directly; I do have a dozen or so photographs of Brooklyn.
I believe that dogs are angels on earth.
The word "angel" comes to us from the Greek word for "messenger." An
angel, then, is a messenger from God.
If you believe in a God who maintains contact with his creation -- and that
is a mighty big "if" -- then it is not unreasonable to believe in angels as a
means of communication, an interface as it were.
Those believers who also believe in revelation and have scriptures that
mention angels will have some very definite ideas about them, know
some by name and occupation, and even know the places where angels
fear (or perhaps distain) to tread.
But belief in angels is not limited to members of mainstream belief
systems. The idea of a spiritual being who cares for you and may even
intervene on your behalf is attractive.
Some see angels in the architecture. Others see angels in the care and
compassion of their fellow human beings. It seems a few even see them
in their pets.
Except for some "angelic" people I have known, I haven't seen any yet.
I'm wondering; has god ever had a message delivered by angels that the recipient wouldn't be better off not getting?
I mean, whenever an angel apperas with a message it usually means that god is charging the poor bastard with some insane task.
Don't know about you, but I'm getting a dog.
