I don't believe in the existence of any supernatural entities of any kind

An angel isn't any more of a "supernatural entity" than you or me. An angel is a simple substance, a substantial form, without matter. An angel is pure intellect. Humans are compound substances, form and matter, but like angels, also have a substantial form, called the "soul" or "intellect."

If you think about it, you'll see that thought is an essentially spiritual activity. Our intellects are spiritual, not material. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a person to reflect upon himself and to objectify his own body. However, the spiritual human soul is naturally linked to the body, and depends upon the body for the acquisition of sensory information.

Whatever you believe in is just fine with me. I don't care. But don't state as fact something that is merely something you believe. It is what you believe, and nothing more.

My 24yrs old died at birth and two more times in childhood.

He has since an early age claimed to be an Angel trapped in a human body.

The second time he said Christ told him the pinapple pizza and red wine was not ready yet.

The third time Christ told him your mom is still crazy. That bothered me no matter how true it is.
