Of course the fact that they’re angels has no bearing on his calculations...

What if Angels are full of helium? Did he analyze an actual Angel?

never mind the fact that you can’t have BOTH arms AND wings.

Mr. Wotten obviously doesn’t know God very well. If he did, he certainly wouldn’t be questioning the flight capabilities of Angels.

He is conflating angels and angels as.... classically depicted.

He extrapolates from angels as classically depicted being unable to fly to cherubs and angels being unable to fly.

A rather big leap that he makes there.

I doubt that angels really care what Professor Wotton publishes about them.

Wow. I'm devastated.

The only thing worse would be if someone proved that some of the martial arts that Jet Li does -- the stuff where he flies from rooftop to rooftop, kicking people as he goes -- is somehow faked. It would kill me to find out that some scientist didn't buy it.

According to science it’s also quite impossible for bumblebees to fly.

If pigs can fly, so can angels!

According to ‘scientists’ bumblebees shouldn’t fly either.

And what angels do is more a teleportation, hovering, time travel kinda thing.

Maybe his guardian angel is a lazy fat ass but mine has managed to fly fast enough to keep my stupid butt alive.

Well yes, but we like dogs and we dance fairly well.

As my high school science teacher once said,”with the small size of their wings in relation to their bodies,bees shouldn’t be able to fly”....

Yo Mr. Science Guy ... your same computer models say that the BUMBLEBEE cannot fly either...

This is a well known problem in flight of dragons. A large reptile would need far more wing surface and power than some human-sized angel. There are several solutions. One simply defines dragons as magical creatures, and therefore science doesn’t apply to them. Another method gives dragons control over gravity. I even read about beasts that have control over time.

"For sure, fairies don't fly."

If the Golden Gate Bridge is any indication, they drop like a rock.
