La Veuve Zin divineseraph An angel comes down and is like "Hey, God wants you to have this kid. It's gonna save humanity from evil, the whole nine yards." My first step would not be a pregnancy test, but rather a psychiatric evaluation. "Um...so, like...I'm hearing angels..." eek Not to mention the fact that it would very hard to explain to the child about their father and all that fun "birds and bees" talk. " well you see, your daddy is God....." I might not be religious but who am I to go again God? He might smite me. Though what is the chances of that happening?

Yeah, I don't think that many people would turn down an actual Angel from God. But, boy, that would be a hard thing to explain to a kid. Not to mention, my husband might be a bit sad to be left out of the baby making process... *wink*

Where is the fun in that?

Where is the fun in that? The fun would be in validating religion, or at least celestial beings. If an angel came to me, I would ask for some of his/her platinum armor. I mean, s/he could just get more in heaven anyway. And wings. ******** traffic. That would be cool.

Just to comment. According to tradition and the bible, no, God would not have smote Mary for refusing. She had total control over the situation; she chose to be the mother of Jesus. It wasn't a chore, it wasn't a demand. She was chosen and she chose to accept.
So even though they're flippantly arguing that (since no one can possibly use that as a serious argument), she still had the choice.

She did have a choice, and choose to birth the Son of God. Good point!

Pregnancy in exchange for eternal fame and sainthood? I'd go for it...

Why not? External fame and sainthood could be fun, you would be respected by thousands or more people for years to come and get to have your own statue (I would like to have my own statue).

When the angel comes though, push for wings. Seriously.

Riiiight. I can see that conversation.
Angel: God wants you to be the mother of his child, the second coming of the Lord!
You: Wow, an Angel! Hey, can you give me wings?
Angel: Did you not hear me? God wants you to be the second mother of Jesus Christ!
You: Yeah yeah yeah, baby, God, Jesus, whatever, can you give me wings?
Angel: ...Ah, I think I'll go see if -she- *points* wants to be the mother of God.

Honestly, I wouldn't be a good candidate to carry the Son of God. Because of the... you know... not having a v****a thing. Or a uterus. Unless Jesus is made of a non-corrosive material and can survive in stomach acid and intestines and such.

Then obviously, there's no reason for you to worry about the wings, because God'll never ask you to carry the son of God.
Also, I think the middle statement in your doubletalk signature is backwards.

Also, I think the middle statement in your doubletalk signature is backwards. Well, if I was in the vicinity, I would ask for them. Any angel sighting, really. Even if it was just down for coffee. You can't be pushy with an angel though, they'll look at you directly and catch you on fire. You have to ease it into the conversation. "Ah, you have a latte there. Looks good. I also notice you've got a nice set of wings. Be a pal and slip me a couple of those" And no, it's going the right way. Though I agree, it makes more sense the other way. But, I didn't write it, I'm not going to get all up in Orwell's s**t.

But an angel's wings are attached to the angel anyways. You're going to ask him to tear off his wings and give them to you?
