Honestly, with all the biblically accurate angel memes that have been floating around I feel like they’re becoming banal. At this point if I saw one my reaction would be “yawn you guys need to come up with a more original corporeal form.”
Maybe this is why they’re being posted? Angels getting tired of repeating themselves and being feared.
If an angel appears before you in human form, they come bearing good news. If they appear before you in their true form, they come bearing responsibility.
Fuck that I'm carrying a helo just in case. Toss on the meatball with wings at first sight. I need me some good news.
Angels came to Lot in human form. They told him to GTFO of the city. Things happen, and his wife ends up a pillar of salt.
This is also when a crowd gathered up outside his house wanting to rape his guests, and Lot's response was to offer his daughters to be raped instead. This demonstrates that Lot showed proper hospitality to his guests, or something.
Straight up description of an entity thousands report seeing while on DMT tho.
Which indicates that it is
-
A failure state the human brain goes into. Like how certain optical illusions work on nearly everyone
-
Humans build narratives off senses. If there is already a cultural narrative and you have weird data will put it in there. You got a round peg and your culture gave you a round hole.
-
A physical chemical allows you to outwit infinitely powerful infinitely higher beings and they are powerless to stop it.
3 doesn't seem very likely.
Where does outwitting come into the equation in the first place? By all accounts, the interaction is reported as being entirely consensual.
Because they choose to be invisible.
Where'd you get that idea?
Inference. Being invisible to us and complex is going to take a lot of effort to deceive us. You can't see with an invisible eye. You can't avoid sinking into the core of the earth unless you have some density, which makes you wonder why we never see their footprints. So if all our senses and technology has failed to find them they must be actively working towards that goal.
How hard to animals try to use camouflage? Maybe it's just a natural state.
As I point out it doesn't end there. Even if somehow some way humans just naturally couldn't see them we have other senses we have other sensing technology we have inference. Mud and dust that show no footprints, radio site surveys that show no interference, radar, infrared, lidar..A lot of this stuff you can see for yourself

Heck how do they pass thru buildings to get in and out with density? Would we not all notice random doors and windows opening and closing? How many secure sites on earth where you need to badge in to a every room.

Inre #3 I dunno the god I worship is outwitted by butter.
How would seeing them outwit them?
They choose to be invisible, you choose to make them visible.
Does that mean outsmart everything you see in a telescope, or a magnifying glass?
Are we outsmarting birds every time we go bird watching?
Are birds watching our minds and suppressing out ability to see them? Are they making sure that they are never recorded by every single camera and instrument?
Look this has been fun but you can drop the gag now. You don't really believe in shadow beings. That are all-powerful all-knowing and will only talk to you when you put a hallucinating producing chemical in yourself. It is just so much freaken easier to understand that humans, a super social species, will imagine talking things when their brain is busted for a little while. Compared to Uber-beings who roll nat-20s on every stealth check.
This is a good angel to support the theory that angels are actually misunderstood four-spatial-dimensional beings who survived the universe collapsing to three spatial dimensions.
This is a good angel
Interesting time for that particular typo.
"theory", this is not.
Bible: Angels visit earth and have consensual relations with human women. Angels also visit Abe and Sarah appearing to be humans. Angels visit Lot and appear to be human.
Also Bible: be not afraid of me despite being a lovecraftian nightmare!
Can't even keep their lies straight
Seraphim are only one type of angel. The Cherubim are perfectly fuckable if you're into the whole four heads thing.
I wonder if they have four of other body parts. In which case it could really work out well for you.
Four heads wouldn't be terrible either. Just picture a very NSFW game of ring around the rosie.
How do you even have relations with the pictured entity?
Lots of lube and closing your eyes and think of England.
For king and country
I said don't be afraid.
"You ask too much of him"
"Child, I was not asking"
Why do you think said "be not afraid" and not " Please do not be afraid"?
Yeah I was agreeing with you.
Oh.
It helps to be tripping absolute balls on mushrooms, peyote, or other hallucinogens. Well "helps" in the sense that while the angel will seem normal, ordinary rocks will now terrify you.
That's where the burning bush comes in.
I've got an ointment what should help with that
It's like the Make Cygnus level of Katamari Damacy
This feels like it could be a panel from Preacher
Okay pees a little
Always makes me laugh when at kids nativities they have a sweet little girl in a white dress saying meekly "Don't be afraid". Tough shepherds would take a LOT to freak out!
Would you ever really want to see an angel?
