waht ppl these days don't understand is the because of STAR WARS cherubim have alot hard time doing their jobs.
it used to be the case that when any old bloke stumbled into the tree of life that the cherubim could just wave their flaming sword around and scare people away real easy. now, however, nerds like you just stare at the sword and say "woag that's so cool!!", ask dumb questions about kyber crystals and fighting stances, and say "don't worry mx. cherry buddy, i know so much about biblically accurate angels, im all about being not afraid". what people don't realize however is that cherubim don't actually like using their swords, because every time they kill, maim, touch, or even appear to a mortal they have to report the situation to the Angelic Oversight Board, you bet they'd catch a lot more flak for messing with someone who was just looking with stupified wonder rather than hubristicly defying their divinely invested authority. it puts them in a very tricky situation.
so please, next time u see a cherub u can make their job easier by looking away from their lightsaber, turning around, and slowly walking away
