Atheists: Would you like to have wings

Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
Not at all, it could be carried.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
No. I am well pleased
with my present form.
Would they be detachable? Seems a lot of work carrying them around when you are not using them.
Always.
(Obscure maxi-pad joke.) And another similar.. What do you get your eighty year old girlfriend for her birthday? Depends. (Moira, I sense that you are a teenaged girl who upon running out of things to say, still can't quite bring herself to end the phone call. Some of these threads of yours...)
Can I fly over the people I don't like and, umm, drop them a message on their heads, so to speak?
There is an ALLLL-knowing, ALLLL-powerful, inVISible being who is everywhere, who created the WHOLE universe, who lives in another dimension called heaven, who is perfect in every way, who was never born and will never die, and who watches you every minute of every day (even when you're squeezing one out on the toilet). There are also unicorns, leprechauns, Santa Claus, an Easter Bunny, and a giant purple people eater.
JUST BELIEVE IT!
Presumably the question relates to flying, rather than fluttering or whatever, in which case I can't imagine how having wings growing from a human form could ever be anything other than annoying. The wingspan alone would have to be so enormous that it couldn't be practical to carry them around when not in use. Then there's the question of muscle power and bone structure to work the things; I've heard it said in reference to angels that they would need to have a wishbone protruding something like six feet out of their chests. Then if there are feathers involved we get into the whole business of preening, keeping them in flight condition etc.
But there's one factor that would keep me permanently on the ground, even if all the other issues were ironed out. I'm acrophobic - I am shit scared of heights. And trust me, the last thing you want flying over your head at any appreciable height is someone having the shit scared out of them. It's bad enough with pigeons.

None of your questions to atheists have anything to do with atheism. Just sayin'.
I'd rather have wingless flight, like Superman. RE: Atheists: Would you like to have wings

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them. Impersonation is treason. |
