Angels should definitely have wings

Wow. Looks like me, but without body hair & with feathers. Oh, and not a bald bastard. Plus the shoulders are a bit wimpy. Otherwise, the spitting image.

Meanwhile, my Mexican friend Angel has confirmed that he does not have any wings, so that's one piece of corroborative evidence. My other Mexican friend Jesus has refuted allegations that he was nailed to a cross and came back from the dead 3 days later, calling it a "vile rumor".

Sorry to report this guys, but the angelolgoist is right.

Watched this documentary on the BBC last night - it is clear from the footage that angels do not have wings:

This craps upon all those anecdotes claiming that angels have wings.
