Tone as if angels exist

I think this page does a good job at showing the various types/forms of angels. What I miss, however, is a statement that these are fictional.

I suggest to add the word 'fictional' to the first sentence, resulting in:

> An angel is a fictional supernatural spiritual being who, according to various religions, is God's servant. '

@VenusFeuerFalle I think that all of those definitions apply to the stories told about angels. 142.166.215.52 (talk) 13:47, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ooooh, never tell a Christian that anything having to do with their God is fictional, even when it is.
