Thats a good question and a hard one to answer. Some people who don't believe in god but they might believe in some type of higher power.

Heavenly angels, often referred to as guardian angels, are mentioned numerous times in the Scriptures. Therein we learn that angels are spiritual beings created by God to serve him, and sent by God to watch over the human race, to deliver his message, to guard and protect us from danger, to do battle with other spiritual beings on our behalf.
Since the beginning of time, angels have delivered God's messages to mankind. Sometimes the messages are warnings of impending danger, sometimes instructions as to what to do in a particular situation, sometimes they are simply "there" as protection from enemy forces. Sometimes they bring joyful announcements as in the day they announced the birth of Jesus.
I am often asked by skeptics, Why do we need angels? In truth, I don't know. God can deal with us in any way that pleases him to do so. He can speak with us directly, in a burning bush, in dreams, visions and specifically through the Scriptures. Yet, he also employs angels. The Scripture says angels were created for his pleasure. Perhaps it is as simple as that -- it pleases God to send the supernatural heavenly beings to minister to his children.
Since the start of the "I Believe in Angels" website in 1995, it has become a popular resource of those looking for Biblical truth about God's holy creatures, Angels. This site is dedicated to presenting the subject from a Biblical perspective instead of following the popular cult path where angels are worshipped and otherwise deified. While we believe angels are very important in the world today, we hold the biblical view that they are created beings that serve their Creator, and obey His commands.
True Angel Stories
In the past years, we have received hundreds of stories about extraordinary experiences sent by people from every walk of life and from all over the world. We chose the best of these stories to share on the web. In order to better present the angel stories we have recently created a sister-site: WhereAngelsWalk.com -- a site dedicated to those supernatural and extraordinary accounts that simply cannot be explained away as mere coincidences. On that site, those interested in sharing their stories may join the site and submit their stories.

Just a question, How can you believe in Angels and not believe in the God that created them. Sorry that is very confusing. I would think it was strange to have angels who God did not create. But if there was no God there would be no protection from evil.

hmmm..i don't like to criticise so please just take it as a curiosity..why don't you believe in god?..or better said what do you believe in?...i know some people ask for proof,but i think..the fact that we exist..that nature exists,the earth exists..the universe..so many unexplainable things..aren't they enough proof that god exists?...god is not literally an old men up in the sky guiding our lives,god is in each one of us...everybody needs to believ in something i think..why do we choose to believe that god isn't real?..god is what you want him to be..even if you like to think it's your own autosugestion to help you overcome the problems by believeing that there is someone there who listens to you...anyays...i believe in god,and also in angels but when i pray i pray to god..
