That's ANGELS not angles they may as well be angles, more believable.

Talking about angels?

Has anyone read the NY Times bestseller -
"Heaven is for Real?" it's based on a true
story and sold over 11 million copies.

A film's been made of the book, and it's available
on DVD - from JB HI FI. Its a little boys astounding
story of his trip to heaven and back.

During surgery the 4 year old son of a pastor leaves
his body and goes to heaven. When he awakes he recounts
his visit in full detail to the other side and the people
he meets who he couldn't possibly have known. They existed
before he was born.

A very warm and lovely film - very suitable for Easter
giving.

I've bought two copies as gifts.

In 1994 My brother asked me to accompany him to Bundaberg with a load of furniture from Sydney on his Pantech. We arrived in Brisbane at just after midnight needing diesel and were lost, he prayed that God would send his angel to show us the way. Just then a soft-top red MG sports car pulled up and said to us, "You guys Lost' we said yes. He said just follow me when you see me put on my blinker at the Bruce Highway you turn there. He received a message from God to know what we needed. Several events have happened similar. You ask me if I believe in angels I'd have to say yes.

Hi Josephus,

When I was in hospital having surgery - I wasn't feeling
the best. The staff and care that I received was
truly amazing. I think the front-line staff in hospitals
who have to deal with some very difficult situations -
are really angels. And I'm grateful to each and every one
of them for the difficult work that they do.

Angels come in different guises. Anyone who does good
and helps others - makes our world a better place.
We all have the capability of being angels.

Time for someone to start some new threads: like those characters who have never done it before, but just sponge off those who do.

Answer-
A fortnight back I tried to create a thread about the lack of support for Anglo-Self Determination in the form of access to Anglo doctors- and how this seemed to be a form of genocidal policy denying culturally appropriate medical treatment to Anglo Australian's. I think I alluded to Mao's four pillars policy to take over the institution's through Education, Health, Army, Courts.

For some reason the thread was never approved as far as I could tell.

Sometimes my other priorities don't let me contribute to OLO as much as I would like.

Perhaps GY in his wisdom thought it didn't work. Overall I've been happy with his decision's even though I don't always get what I want.

Sometimes even the best of us needs to be constrained.

No one is omniscient...

That might be one of the reasons that many don't post their own threads ttbn- I'm sorry that it puts more pressure on you.

Poster- Banjo Paterson said-

Anthropologists, E.B. Tylor and James Frazer look at religion from an evolutionary approach. In examining societies that they regard as less complex, they argue that as civilisations advance, it is inevitable that their system of belief advances as well. The more complex a society, the more complex the religious system.

Answer- E.B. Tylor appears to have come from a broken home after the death of his parents. Frazer appears to come from a line of serial academics. These sorts of backgrounds seem to explain why in some cases why people have rejected UK cultural traditions. Sometimes it seems to explain more about their particular psychological illness of alienation and isolation than the projection of their psychologies upon society. Perhaps this is also true of socialists more broadly.

Recently someone said to me that "the government should help orphan's" or similarly children without parents. I said no... if anything the government should help their relatives to look after them as at least they have some vested interest in their future. A foster parent whether employed by the government or not will never have the same trust of the child as a blood relative. Even in this age of "Working With Children Check's" children are still being abused by the system and by political ideology often by those that claim the child's interest.

"The government should help orphan's" is a variation on the theme of "we have to help the poor" that Ayn Rand decries as creating victim culture. As Benjamin Franklin said we build hospitals for the poor not because it's good for the poor but because it's good for the rich. Opportunity doesn't come to you- you have to strive to grab it. No one knows if an opportunity will bear fruit- there is risk- but safety according to Gustav Le Bon is not sought or obtained by avoiding risk- but by managing it.
