“There is something unnatural about the image of a wild turkey vulture spending its time untying shoelaces. Something is missing in this picture. Something is lacking. Likewise, there is something lacking in imagining angels domesticated to provide for our human needs and concerns. Not that angels do not assist us or care for our wellbeing, but is that the best way in which to think of them? Might we not be taming in our expectations what should not and cannot be tamed?”
