Angels Are Real
Thanks to scientific skepticism, angels are commonly regarded as an absurdity, yet many of the world's greatest intellectuals, such as Socrates, Plato, Plotinus, St. Augustine, Bonaventure, Thomas Aquinas, Descartes, and Leibniz accepted their existence. These illustrious thinkers were much more intelligent than typical scientists, and it has to be said that science has never disproved the existence of angels any more than it has disproved the existence of mind. In fact, angels are the archetypal creatures of the mind since they are free of material bodies. They are pure intellects and possess astounding, Godlike knowledge. When they temporarily need a body in order to interact with humans, they can harness their intellectual power and knowledge to manufacture one from the atoms of the air.
Where humans belong to the dimensional order of existence, angels belong to the dimensionless order. Science, being based on materialism, empiricism and dimensionality, can literally say nothing about dimensionless existence, but there is a superior subject to science that can do so easily ... mathematics.
The existence of angels is proved by mathematics. Angels are no more mysterious or incredible than "imaginary" and "complex" numbers, or Leibnizian monads (singularities), or massless, dimensionless photons, or zero and infinity. Much of what is said by scientists regarding quantum mechanics represents a much higher order of improbability, illogic and absurdity than anything that has ever been said about angels. In fact, science would do well to study the mathematics of angels if it wishes to start saying sane, rational things about quantum mechanics.
The Neoplatonist Plotinus said, "We dare not keep ourselves set towards the sensuous principle, following the images of sense, or towards the merely vegetative, intent upon the gratifications of eating and procreation; our life must be pointed towards the Intellective, towards the Intellectual-Principle, towards God."
Plotinus stated, "Mankind is poised midway between the gods and the beast."
What are we - more highly evolved brutes, or fallen angels? Or are we the Angel in the Ape?

Become a Mathematical Angel
This book thoroughly analyzes Thomas Aquinas's account of Angels and explores their nature within a rationalist, mathematical system. The author also sheds light on Bonaventure's thoughts and ideas about angels and how angels affect reality.
The author explains that Angels are disembodied minds who operate through intuitive intelligence and mathematical reasoning. This ties directly to various other ESP, OBE, and NDE's. I think the author could have discussed Angelism from a depth-psychology perspective and whether they are literal beings or archetypes of the collective unconscious.
Nonetheless, the book is very interesting.
