As if we should know what an angel looks like.

That may have been what it was, but I am sure this Pope is regularly accompanied by angels. (Otherwise the French bishops would have done him in long ago.)

It's quite amazing, isn't it? And you're right, not a surprise at all!

What about his trip to Turkey!! Prime target for a Muslim assassin.

Benedict XVI is one extremely holy man who is being guided by the Holy Spirit. No surprise that he would be protected by one, if not an entire legion of angels.

That classic picture is available as a framed print from Leaflet Missal if I am not mistaken. One of my favorites, I might add.
