i am astonished

i thought that snail, at least, would know enough church history to understand that this question has been debated before; just as the trinity has been:)

Cup would say, "Dancing is an unproven theory put forth by the Zionist banking cartel in order to discredit angels."

Dancing is a difficult phenomenon to understand when you don't believe in gravity.

It would be difficult, I would think, for even one angel to do the foxtrot on the head of a pin.

it is a mistake to take things too literally

pin is actually an allegory

and everyone knows that angels are in fact messengers or pastors:D

Oh, I got the 42. Always a good answer, especially for an Adams (sp?) fan. I was going in a different direction, was torn between king of the (very tiny) hill or the claustrophobic angel.

C'mon Harley, get serious. The correct answer is 3,162 cherubin, but only 1,054 seraph (also known as seraphim). Explanation: Seraphs have three (3) pair of wings whereas cherubin only have one pair.

My apologies, we must not have studied this as part of the business curriculum at college...no, the real question is, how many angel can we sell floorspace to on the head of a pin?

Great Kraw, my dear fellow,

I think the question should be: "How many angels can dance on the point of a needle..." but, truly, this question serves as a metaphor for wasting time debating topics of no practical value. It is still a matter of discussion whether this precise topic has a historical foundation, in actual writing or disputation from the European Middle Ages. One theory is that it is an early modern fabrication, used to discredit scholastic philosophy at a time when it still played a significant role in university education.........

KIDDING!!!!!

I COPIED AND PASTED FROM WIKIPEDIA!!!! and you thought I knew what you meant...hee heee...lol...for a moment there I almost felt like a philisopher!!!! phew! that was close!!!!

**goes back to counting sheep in the clouds...**
