Yes, another strange question, i am sure that there are those who are smiling right now, and those that says: what does she wants from us.
If you had a choice given to you being an angel, flying all day, coming down to earth whenever you want and helping people, being able to meet your loved ones that dies, and being seen as a regular human being when you go down to earth on your special mission, OR, staying as you are a human being, with all the pains and joy, what would you choose??

erm.. i prefer to be human being.. i bet you're wondering why i choose to be human instead.. right? very simple.. because i think life as an angel is too boring and simple.. angels don't cry... don't get sad..angels are the one protecting the human.. that's what i believe.. they give us happiness.. but they don't feel it themselves.. and furthermore.. angel has higher responsibilities than human.. i wan to be a human to feel the suffering on earth.. to get sick.. to feel love.. to get hurt.... i wan to have all types of emotion.. and i want to see how thing changes =)

I would very much prefer to remain a simple human being and live with all my little worries and occasional joys and merriment.

Ah for me this would be an easy question, without a second thought I'd choose to be an angel, being a regular human being sucks and currently I'm having a raw deal so I would happily change places. It would be great to be a guardian angel, I would love to be a vigilante angel so if anyone was in trouble I would fly down and save them and rescue them out of harms way. I would also love to see my beloved nan again.

I would like to stay as human...because I am not sure if I can be human again...my mission on planet Earth is not accomplished yet...
I do have a chance to be an angel anyway...but I can help humans on Earth without being an angel....
We always think about superpower, when in fact...we do have superpower as humans....superpower of love and affection...and as humans we can help other people much more than angels can....

So the answer is very simple for me, liranlgo!
I would definately like to stay as a human being, because what kind of scope human beings have, angels have not! Angels are just stay as angels with given ID and work, They can not grow like humans!
Humans have this advantage of becoming a part of total existence by submegemce in to god or to be with god, angels have not such possibility!

wow an interesting question to ponder. One I have never thought of before. An angel, hmmm, never have to fear hell - they always do the will of God since those who did not were cast out. They are in the very presence of the Almighty....but, they were not created in the image and likeness in the way that we were.
I guess it is a higher nobility to be created as a man for we are told that even we will judge the angels., but then again as a human I have many failings which I have not perfected out of myself yet.
I think this is a very difficult question, so I will have to answer that I choose to be what God willed for me to be. And, I will hope to be good at it and fail less often in the future.

What a wonderful question to think about. I would love to be an angel, helpin people, being there for my loved ones as they pass over. Being seen as a regular human being on earth sounds great..no pun intended, but you would have the best of both worlds.

I would become an Angel--I feel the greatest thing in the world would be to be able to lead people away from evil, fear, and hopelessness, and inspire faith and goodness in the world.

Of course, I would like to be an angel. But being an angel has tough requirements. You should have good deeds that will be judged by God. Perhaps, we were all angels previously. Because of past sins, we have to come to this world (I believe this). We might not remember it when we were born. Otherwise, it won't bring any good because we won't act sincerely or purely.

it seems as a good story to choose the ending,angel is a great character to our dreaming life,we like the angel freedom life ,and like to dream to fly,and angel also will help people who are in a pain.but as a human being,the angel just a imagined character,it don't exist in world.human being must be work and get more comfortake life to them
