Believing in the unknown and unseen is indications of a distorted worldview. Without hard evidence or one scintella of proof that withstands the cold scutiny of scientific observation, its just wishful thinking.
While it might be nice to wish that we'll see our dead loved ones in an afterlife or that there's guardians spirits running around helping us (do they see us in the showers too), without proof, its just fanciful thinking. Better to continue believing in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy...what a wonderful rose-coloreed world that would be.

Yes I do. Two years ago I was in a very bad car accident. I was thrown from the car and was lying face up. I couldn't feel my legs or move. Then I saw a woman wearing white hovering over me. I passed out. When I woke up I was in the hospital. They said that it looked like I was trapped under the car but someone had dragged me away to a safe distance. They asked me if I remember seeing anyone. I just said no. Until now. This is the first time I have told what really happened. Do I believe in angels? I have seen one and she saved my life.

I don't generally believe in angels and the supernatural. However, all the "chemistry experiments" I did as a kid had the shrapnel blow the other way away from me, so not quite sure about the non-existance of guardian angels.

I saw a story on this little boy who was very sick since birth. When he was old enough to talk he told his mom about his angel.He said she was always there with him and told him one day all his pain would be gone.On his last birthday his parents gave him a huge party and he kept telling his mom isn't this great mom , all the angels are here, don't you see them.Of course he was the only one who saw them.Many of the friends and family knew this would be his last year on earth so everyone brought cameras and took lots of pictures.In every single picture of every camera there was a white blur behind the boy , and in several you could see lots of white blurs. Yes i believe in angels.

Hmm, I do. I saw an angel when I was six years old standing in front of the door with his arms outstretched like he was guarding the door. He was looking into the coat closet that we always left open then looked at me. I was so scared of him. He was really tall and whe he noticed me he smiled just a bit. I stepped back, rubbed my eyes and when I opened them it looked like he was stepping towards me. I panicked and ran into my mom and dad's room and buried my head in a pillow. The next morning I woke up there, so I wasn't dreaming and I have never sleep walked.
People never believe me, but I guess I can't expect them to. What can ya do... :)

I believe in angels as a people who watch over us as the Lord commands. Jesus Christ can tell them to go and they will do anything. I also believe that God can send you a dream/vision while you sleep that can be significant.
I know someone who had a dream when she was a teenager about her mom's friend's daughter. this girl, laura, had gone to London, and my friend did not know it. in her dream, she saw laura in London and she dreamed that laura was murdered. she forgot the dream till the next day when her mom's friend called. she was upset because the night before she had had a disturbing dream about laura. they had dreamed the same thing, but my friend hadn't even known she was away and hardly ever saw her when she was home. my friend remembered her dream and told her mom. they got in touch with laura right away and she came home. they have no idea what might have happened if she had stayed. It was most defiantly a God thing.
There are also several reasons from personal experience that I believe in God, Jesus, and angels, but i promise, life will never be complete until you have experienced your own. This comes through Faith.
If you want more info, let me know. :-)

No. For there to be such would violate many of natual laws that we understand to be operable.
