The moderator told me questions like this aren’t stupid and they’re the point of this community.
I want an answer.

Hello and warm greetings,
I represent Pinhead Construction Ltd. We specialize in pin heads to meet all your needs. You ask, “how many angels can dance” and I answer, “where do you want the DJ?” We have pin heads ranging from the size of a… well I can’t think of an example of something small, but also all the way up to our “People Pleaser” model that can hold 3 Costcos.
AND, financing is available! To those who qualify.
Special terms apply, see our ad in this month’s issue of Modern Swadlin’ for more details. Pinhead Construction LTD, Pinhead Labor Relations, Pinhead Mining, and Pinhead AI offer no warranty, implied or specific. Do not use Pinhead pin heads if you are allergic to metal. No purchase necessary. Offer void in Utah.
Please answer my question.
3 or 54 exactly, and nothing in between. Also, you are taking all of this waaay too seriously. Go touch some grass.
What species of grass do you think will produce the most acceptable results should I touch it? Do you think Kentucky bluegrass is the best?
I hear what you’re saying, my point is invalid because I haven’t touched grass, so I need you to answer this question.
I need to know your location to know what grass is ecologically appropriate to grow there. Wouldn’t want you growing an invasive species. Also need to know the layout of your water, soil, proximity to water, amount of shade, etc. Would be easiest for you to just provide your address so I can find the best grass location near you.
There is also the option to just not interact with things you don’t like on the internet. You can just not respond. You can block people that say things you don’t like. You can also make your own community that you moderate how you want to. Why are you demanding that someone else do work that you’re unwilling to do yourself?
Or you can go touch grass. If you find google maps data collection too invasive to find a local park with you can also try duckduckgo.
That depends on whether the angels in question are bosons or fermions—which in turn depends on how they’re spinning (so the dance they’re performing may also be relevant).
ooh quantum angels! i love it when two things i can’t ever understand combine powers
I hope you love eyes too! Because they heavily invested in eyes.
“where we’re going, you won’t need eyes to see”
sorry, not relevant, but it made me think of this line from Event Horizon, which was the only horror movie that has ever actually frightened me.
As many angels as actually exist.
Can jesus microwave a burrito so hot that even he couldn’t eat it?
Not enough info. What wattage of microwave? What size and filling of the burrito? Is he allowed to drink water and/or wine between bites? Have you recently modified the DNS settings on the microwave?
I’d say since angels are imaginary, √-1 angels would fit on a pin head.
All of them. None of them.
None, because they don’t exist.
Okay then, how many angels can dance on the head of a small block Chevy?
I have many pins here, so try again.
sqrt(-1).
What is “women around me, described using math terms only”?

I think the moderator is correct.
They are wrong.
They are lazy.
If they don’t want to shape this into a community where people can actually ask questions that can produce a meaningul answers, it’s just a pointless chat room.
pointless chat room.
that doesn’t sound too bad
There’s communities designed for that. For example Casual Conversation.
I’m not backing down.
zero or more
4 to 7 depending how fast they can move their feet
Angles have not been proven to exist, so I guess 0 and ∞.
If you can find proof of angels existing, then we would need to have more specifics:
- how big are the angels?
- what type of pin are you curious about? A fabric pin, for example, is much thinner than a pushpin.
- what style of dance might they be doing? A line dance would require significantly more space than, say, the Macarena.
We’d also need to find out if angels are solids, or if they could pass through eachother as that could reduce the space they need and alter the answer significantly.
Not sure what point you’re trying to make - people come from all walks of life… A stupid question to me may not be a stupid question to everyone else.
Would you know how to survive like a Sentinelese?
Could you tell me how to export a list of packages I have installed on my computer using pacman and yay so I can batch install them after wiping my computer?
Could you tell me the typical directory where I could find the word.dot file for a typical Windows user running Microsoft Office?
Would you know why you can’t mix DOT2 and DOT3 but you can mix DOT3 and DOT4?
Right answer should be none, zero. I have few friends named Angel (that is their first name) and none of them can dance.
Precisely as many angels as there are whole numbers, or exactly as many as the quantity of numbers you can count between 0 and 1 (0.5, 0.2341, etc).
The original context of the question was more about if angels and the afterlife were physically manifest or intangible, and early thinking about how infintesimals work.
But there are more numbers between 0 and 1 then there are whole numbers. So are the countable many angles or uncountably many?
Nobody knows. there may even be a finite number of angels since countless may not reffer to the math term we use today
exactly as many as the quantity of numbers you can count between 0 and 1
I specified countable to keep them in the same class of infinity. :) not about to make that mistake when bringing pedantry to a silly fight. .
Since it’s implied that they have names, I’m going to use that as my argument for there being a countably infinite number. If you want to argue that only certain special angels have names, like Michael or π, then I’d say they’re uncountable.
If you wanted to argue that omnipotence means a deity could defy logical restrictions and allow contradictory truths to coexist, then I’d say I’m far too sleepy for that discussion but I love where you’re heads at. :P
