"How Many Angels Can Dance On The Head Of A Pin?"
What a waste of scholarship. I didn't even bother reading it, because I didn't want to lose any IQ points.
But you certainly took the time to post your opinion. If this is a topic that does not interest you, why bother telling us.
“How Many Angels Can Dance On The Head Of A Pin?”
I, many years ago, thought such a question - if it was every debated - would be a “waste of scholarship”. A Medieval History professor I had, however, pointed out why I was wrong. He noted that angels are incorporeal beings and unseen. The head of a pin is a tiny thing. Dancing is activity that, of course, demands movement. The question then becomes, “Does motion effect matter or space? Do incorporeal things take up space if they are multiplied and if so why and how? How does the incorporeal interact with the corporeal? How do you define the properties of a corporeal or incorporeal thing or being?” Anyway, in just a few minutes the professor made me realize that the silly question about angels dancing on the head of a pin - which no one has ever found any proof of a debate about by the way - is actually a worthwhile debate for a people just beginning to work out the rules of science.
