Well, it is a good question, and most parents, godparents and teachers have run into it. I enjoyed seeing all the serious posts, and fell into the same thing myself. It’s a funny thread though, and I’ve enjoyed reading the responses! Thank You!

Now THAT one is funny! Should put that on the thread for Outrageous Humor here!
I laughed a good belly laugh at this, (including my belly button, since I’m not an angel!)
Oh boy, I sure picked up that quote wrong!! That makes it even funnier!! (Told you in the earlier post I have an oddball sense of humor, but this was accidental humor!) Comes of not being computer literate!!!

Of course NOT. They are spirit, not material.

I think many of them missed this post, so are still thinking you are most serious! It is a good thread though, but let’s not get too intellectual about it. When we get a post saying that yes they have them because they “came from God”, we’re in trouble here!I posted the question to “lighten” the atmosphere around here. Some folks get so involved with their intellectual abilities that I find it a bit tough to endure at times.

I knew it was a joke! That’s why I had to put “gestating” and “angels” in the same sentence. Even though other people answered the question properly as well. I like your sense of humor!

God touched them at creation. It was formerly Church teaching that angels are spirits only, but that’s all evolved now to a different understanding. Per private revelation of course. The belly button is only visible to those who believe.
An angel recently appeared to a crowd of people and was photographed. The belly button was clearly visible.

Of course there are those angels who got no belly button and became angry for it. They rebelled and were punished

Was that the Miracle of FAT-ima where the angel with the belly button appeared to the three little dough boys?

Why would an angel have a belly button? Humans have them because they are what’s left of where our umbilical cords were attached to us while we were inside our mom’s wombs. Though perhaps it would be an interesting place for a really stylish angel to pierce and put a halo in as jewelry! LOL!

This is the sort of question that would have the medieval philosophers all wound up. They debated imponderables such this. But we have much better answers!

Medieval Scholars debated about how many angels could stand on the head of a pin! If you add bellybuttons, you might have to move some angels off the head of the pin! Yuk - yuk!!!
Funny thread!! Not to be taken seriously, but distracting from daily chores, at least!!
Wonder if they like eating hamburgers or bean soup (without ham, since angels protect the Jewish people as well!! Or maybe only the angels who protect Jews have to abstain from the ham in the bean soup???) Hee - heee!

“How many angels can dance on the head of a pin” was sarcastic response to the works of St. Thomas Aquinas and Blessed Duns Scotus.Medieval Scholars debated about how many angels could stand on the head of a pin!

It was a way to insult the works of scholastic Christian philosophers such as Scotus and Aquinas.

Sarcastic response in Medieval times or not, I find it resonates well with some of the responses to Christians, and especially to Catholics nowadays!
It’s still a rather stupid idea (angels on the head of a pin), whether they are dancing or standing! But I find it as funny, and silly, as angels having bellybuttons! Don’t need to know the historical reference to still think it’s just as silly and funny and distracts me from the daily grind, and that makes it worthwhile!!

Why thank you! I thought so! It would certainly be a better sign than if you ran into an angel with a pitchfork in his eyebrow–huh? LOL!That would be a pretty cool angel to have a halo on it’s belly!

Any angel showing up in my house with a pitchfork (in or out of eyebrow!) would get doused with a bottle of holy water first thing! I sure wouldn’t check out his/its bellybutton!!
