Reminded me of "Touched by an Angel" - god, I hated that show! The creators of that show were apparently hypnotised by the bizarre notion that it'd be a good premise for divine creatures, specifically interested in middle-class Americans' problems, to visit people and dole out advice. Meanwhile, the rest of the world burns like the living hell it is for so many people. Not the people fired from their jobs, not the people in a messy divorce, not the people who lost grandma last week, nor those in debt. No, I'm talking about the emaciated people who eat nothing because there is nothing. The people kept in basements where they're repeatedly raped by a family member, forced to bear children to them for decades. The people who live in war-torn, irradiated slums with high incidences of babies being born grotesquely disfigured. The children who had chemicals injected into their eyes in an attempt to change the colour; the children who were sewn together in an attempt to make conjoined twins. The people who were drawn and quartered, and every innocent man and woman put to death for crimes only they knew they didn't commit.
But come, let's just take this opportunity to thank God for your guidance and assistance where other's were not so fortunate. Of course, everybody receives guidance - some are just too damn stubborn to accept it! I wonder how many bawling wrecks of humans have prayed for signs and begged to be delivered from their misery only to hear nothing but the echoes of their own voice. I guess we wouldn't want to rob them of their character building, now would we?
