3. Provide demonstrable evidence that the supernatural exists.
4. Provide demonstrable evidence that angels exist as part of the supernatural.
5. Provide demonstrable evidence that what she saw actually fit the definition of an angel.
Etc, etc...
Until there is some real phenomena that is observable, there is no reason to include the possibility that she saw an angel. There are just too many natural explanations for what she claims she saw.
Or you could just take my word for it and know I have no reason to lie.
Just like you take all the alleged alien abducties word that they were truly abducted by aliens, right?
Please just come clean that you're a POE already. You can't actually be as stupid as you are making yourself out to be.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
