I think that the guy with the wings is indeed an angel- well originally... I think he was one of Lucifer's angels- and that's why in the end his wings became black or in other words scarecrow feathers. I guess I get that idea from a rumor where someone had thought that after God kicked a bunch of Lucifer's followers out of heaven (they were all angels of course) that their wings turned black because they had turned their backs on God. That might also explain why the "angel" didn't understand the priest when the priest was trying to talk to him in Latin, or why the "angel" was trying to hide his wings from his captors.
Then again- what if he really was an angel? Why else would the baby have been healed when they first captured the angel or all of those other "small miracles". Sunflowers sprouting of out the sores of leper, the blind man who didn't get his sight back but instead got 3 new teeth and paralytic who couldn't walk but instead almost won the lottery.
That's still a thought though... A man w/ wings- not an angel, but a man. I guess something like the that guy who was the messenger for the Greek gods and had little wings on his feet- Hermes, that's his name. Something like Hermes but instead this guy had wings on his shoulders... Sorry I'm just chatting now. Or thinking- depending on him you want to look at it.

you do a good job looking at the story from both points-of-view. But if it could be either, what's the point of the story?
3) Depth of thought, either in asking insightful questions(not rhetorical ones) or insightful comments that illustrate complexity of the text
