    Punkin- what do you mean about communicating with them? As in you see them or feel them? Just curious. And also, about the Archangels I thought they actually came from the Christian/Jewish religion?? Am I wrong?? What's your view on that?
    I have discussions with my angels all the time, the reply in their own quirky way but I get replies. Sometimes I get a glimpse but haven't seen one face-to-face, I do feel them around me.

    I don't come from a xtian religion upbringing and I was always told archangels were just fallen angels and weren't specific to a religion.

    I thought Michael was the only Archangel? He's the only one the Bible calls as such, anyway.

    Angels aren't always obedient to God: Satan was created an Angel after all.

    They're also big tough warriors, not simpy girls in pretty dresses with harps and tinsel halos. See all the battle references and flaming swords and cool stuff.

    Interestingly enough (to me only, I know), the word "angel" comes from the old "messager" - evangelism was from "euangelen" (PLEASE correct the spellings here), a messenger who would proclaim things from the king. A true messager. So evangelism = eu (true) angel (message) ism (doing) - spreading the Truth (as well as the Way and the Life ). OK, finished my wordly geekiness now.

    Oh, I thought Gabriel was?

    Yeah, I was thinking you know how when you think of Satan you think of him being ugly and evil looking. Well he is a fallen Angel, so I guess he would actually look pretty good! Hmm...and I guess that would help with his appeal and getting ppl to follow him.

    SJ - have you read the Frank Peretti books "This Present Darkness" and "Piercing the Darkness"?? They are amazing books about the spiritual realm, and you will never have the same view on angels/demons again! So cool

    I work with Lucifer quite a bit (Lucifer is the fallen angel), he is brother to Diana.

    Hey MEL (Arimeh), ... me too ... The second night i was in hospital after having my daughter Cendrine, i was laying in bed on my side looking at her in her crib fast asleep thinking how sad that both my Grandmothers, my G8-Aunt (my middle name after her) & my Auntie (who had passed away whilst i was pregnant) .. they all didn't get to see my first & only child. As i was thinking this suddenly Cendrine opened her eyes so wide open looking at me & then suddenly i could feel someone stroking my hair

    I felt so comforted & at such peace.

    In a lovely but odd way i never felt i was alone in my hospital room the whole entire stay ... i felt very secure

    Was hard too cause neither my folks or my DP's folks ever came to visit us in the hospital when she was born ... so it felt so nice to feel that someone else was there with me having their visit
