The Halo Thread Redux! (Not the X-Box Game, ya Silly Goose)

[Perfection]

After the poor start of the old thread I decided to make this one explicitly clear in the OP that it's not the X-Box game you snot. So don't yammer on about it.

Now for the questions again:
Do you religious folks out there believe that certain figures have halos?

If so please answer the following questions:
Who has a halo?
What exactly do halos look like?
Are halos visable to all?
How can I get my paws on a halo?

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

Halos are artistic shorthand for indicating holiness. The people who originally illustrated them didn't think they were real, but like all symbols they got out of hand.

 

[Red Door]

God, Jesus, Prophets, Saints, Angels (non-fallen), Virgin Mary, righteous dead, myself, and Pope Benedict all have halos.

It's yellow, I guess.

It's not visible to all.

You can get one by becoming a Catholic.

 

[Tycoon101]

All the poll options have halos, they are just invisible to everyone so they can't be seen or otherwise refuted.

The Bible doesn't actually say anything about halos. So whatever.

The Bible also says Adam was 950 years old, I don't know how trustworthy that book is.

What's that supposed to mean?

What's that supposed to mean?

That Christian tradition isn't solely based on what's in the bible, so to mention whether or not something is in the bible is irrelevant.

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

Well, yeah, no doubt, but the fact that there are incorrect statements in the Bible are not evidence of the veracity of things outside the Bible . . .

(Although, Adam could have reached 930 . . .)

It's not visible to all.

Who is it visable too?
