Why would you want to be?
(this is comming from some one who is completely set in his atheist ways, but knows a thing or two about christianity)
The way it seems to me in everyting I have read, from the bible, to contemporary litertature seems to refer to the angels as god's servants, messengers, and gofers
Why would you want to spend a life devoted to god, only to die, and serve him for eternity? Where is the reward? Service to a god that usues you as an errand boy?
It has been said above, and I am almost 100% sure that it has been written that god has made humans in his form and given free will, and therefor we, not angels are the ones chosen as his 'most favorite'.
Just a thought.
