Summary

Angels have been reported for thousands of years across different cultures. What is the evidence of their existence? Three guests examine Biblical and contemporary accounts of angelic visitation. Peter S Williams is a Christian Philosopher and author of the book "The Case for Angels". He say that there is philosophical, biblical and experiential evidence for the existence of angels. Lee Warren is a magician by trade. As an atheist and sceptic he says the mind is capable of making people believe unusual things, but a natural explanation always lies behind accounts of supernatural beings. Roger Harper is an Anglican Vicar who has researched Christian accounts of modern-day angelic visitations.
