if so, why?

yes i do, and because i think there is still good here, people are good and some are trying to be good, angels can be people that brings you love or even animals or plants, or maybe someone who says "bless you" when you snezee.

I don't. I believe in angels, but not in the way most people today seem to think of them. An angel is a heavenly being. Except in rare occasions (which I think could still exist, since there doesn't appear to be an actual end to angelic visits in the Bible), I don't think angels walk around on earth. I also think that in the incredibly rare case that a person sees an angel, he or she will KNOW it immediately (in the Bible, angelic sightings generally caused fear initially, and that's why almost all angelic sightings and conversations with angels begin with "Do not be afraid")
I do think there are Godly people, and there are people God puts in our lives at key moments. But if you fall and hurt yourself in an obscure area, and someone happens upon there and stays with you, that person could very well be placed at that place at that time by God, but technically, he or she is not an angel.
All that said, I don't try to go against the grain. If someone tells me they believe an angel stayed with them when they were hurt, or if someone calls someone else an angel, I'm not going to make an issue out of it.

Yes, or I'd be dead 10 times over. But this is better left to discussion in the Philosophy, Religion or other spiritually board. You can't measure Angels, so psychology doesn't deal well with them. Don't forget there are angels other than "good" angels too.

It's a pretty thought, but unlikely. There have been instances in the Bible where angels were sent down from heaven on a mission from God... that taken into consideration, there might be. But as far as "Guardian angels" go? No. I don't personally believe in that.

yes, because i believe in the Bible. I haven't been able to see them, unlike others who have the gift of vision do, but i can discern and sense their presence. You can even hear an angel singing along with Jason Upton's song "Fly" on his album "Remember". You can search the net for the full story about that instance.

No. Look at all of the bad that happens on the earth. If there are angels on earth, they're falling down on the job.

Yes I do, based on the Bible. Angels were often sent to warn, protect or to give instruction.

Yes, they are there on the earth ( but invisible to human eye). Because GOD Almighty has assigned them various duties to perform and they do their work submissvely and whole heatedly.

Angels are supernatural, therefore only superstition. Okay, except for my wife.

ABSOLUTELY!!!
My friend Rachael is my angel. She helped me find my faith and myself. She was kind and sweet to me always and showed me for the first time what it means to really love someone.
