>>18100849Viv's angels are shit, and it shows.
There are a bunch of differing types of angels.
In programming, we have a term called 'function'
A function is a bit of repeatable code assigned to a name. Every time we call upon that name, it will execute code.
You can tell alot about the nature of the world through code. One architect admires a superior architect's work.
In the bible, the big-book-of-jews, there are a couple different types of angels, but each has their own function and intellegence level.
The way I've interpreted it, all angels can become dysfunctional and not work in the way the big-boss intended, but they still have to do what he says. Those defunct are demons. Generally angels become demons after they get jealous, spiteful, or greedy. In fact, come to think of it, I bet there is a correlation between demons and the seven deadly sins. Like, that's how angels become demons.... is by committing one. Interesting headcanon, but no way to test it.
Some angels are really smart and have the ability to think like you or I, but really have no intelligence god hasn't given them. (Satan, Michael(?), etc)
Some of them are like animals, and just have one and only one purpose, that doesn't require thought. God had a bunch of angels carry his throne around, because moving it himself would be annoying to set in motion each time. The angels don't get tired of this, and enjoy it. It's what they were made to do.
For example, michael, was made to whup-ass. For a long time, satan was the strongest, but after he turned out to be an asshole, god made michael to be almost as strong as god himself. Michael also proved to have better character than satan, because he really likes his job as chief whup-asser, and isn't a prick (So far as I know.)
God also has angels that count the time, manage the skies, write and sing beautiful songs about him (God has a thing about bards, they seem to be very lucky)
I think that viv needs to do more research.
