Angels versus Science

they say that when Newton discovered gravity, it was no longer reasonable for men (and women, I s'pose) to believe that the angels were out there pushing the planets but what I want to know is how many people (men and women included) have seen an angel I can say that I haven't. so why can't a law of phsyics in all of its beauty and simplicity be considered angelic, and for that matter, it could even be God-like.
