So I do not know how a Michael and a Gabriel (even a Menezes) can be > a deity? RESPONSE: When this thread was started, it was mentioned that deities were depicted in the Indian form. I understood, as I am sure the writer meant 'deities' in a broad sense. If not it would have been simple to just say 'God'. Again we shall be digressing and the thread will keep evolving, as it does on Goanet. In the beginning, Angels were considered almost on par ? This is a religious and theological discussion ani I am not in the least bit qualified to venture into this. I respectfully forward :- Definitions of deity on the Web: any supernatural being worshipped as controlling some part of the world or some aspect of life or who is the personification of a force www.cogsci.princeton.edu/cgi-bin/webwn.
