You ask too much of him

Archangel Gabriel: why is nobody being not afraid? I specifically requested it!
- Honestly, with all the biblically accurate angel memes that have been floating around I feel like they’re becoming banal. At this point if I saw one my reaction would be “yawn you guys need to come up with a more original corporeal form.”
  Maybe this is why they’re being posted? Angels getting tired of repeating themselves and being feared.

If an angel appears before you in human form, they come bearing good news. If they appear before you in their true form, they come bearing responsibility.
- Fuck that I'm carrying a helo just in case. Toss on the meatball with wings at first sight. I need me some good news.
- Angels came to Lot in human form. They told him to GTFO of the city. Things happen, and his wife ends up a pillar of salt.
  This is also when a crowd gathered up outside his house wanting to rape his guests, and Lot's response was to offer his daughters to be raped instead. This demonstrates that Lot showed proper hospitality to his guests, or something.

This is a good angel to support the theory that angels are actually misunderstood four-spatial-dimensional beings who survived the universe collapsing to three spatial dimensions.
- This is a good angel
  Interesting time for that particular typo.
- "theory", this is not.

I said don't be afraid.
- "You ask too much of him"
  "Child, I was not asking"
  
  Why do you think said "be not afraid" and not " Please do not be afraid"?

It helps to be tripping absolute balls on mushrooms, peyote, or other hallucinogens. Well "helps" in the sense that while the angel will seem normal, ordinary rocks will now terrify you.
- That's where the burning bush comes in.
  
  I've got an ointment what should help with that

Always makes me laugh when at kids nativities they have a sweet little girl in a white dress saying meekly "Don't be afraid". Tough shepherds would take a LOT to freak out!
