Angels For Those Who Don't Believe

Angels For Those Who Don't Believe
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/christine-...63062.html?

According to the title of the article, this was written for atheists and agnostics.

The writer uses her very young child's dream of three angels as proof that god exists. There is the required passive aggressive swipe at the atheists she is trying to reach.

Quote:And yet there are others whose withered souls fear those deep waters, so they build blind barriers of protection that keep them safe and buoyant while floating atop the unknown. They too, must yearn for understanding and search in secret...

The comments after the article were interesting.  A few Christians wanted to know why atheists responded if they couldn't be more positive about the existence of angels. The theists didn't seem to realize that the article was "For Those Who Don't Believe."  Also, a lot of theists ignored the writers' rather rude comment about nonbelievers' withered souls while getting upset that the atheists commenters weren't thrilled with the article. 

I thought it would be an interesting article to discuss .  The writer, by the way, does not believe her child had a dream about angels but that she really saw three white, transparent people in her room late at night. 


Quote:My daughter has been told countless times, how her Father in Heaven loves and cherishes His beloved children. Much of her life has been immersed in learning of His Grace and His Glory. I have shared precious details of His Hand guiding every step of her glorious and miraculous journey. She has grown to believe.

And now she has seen His Angels...

It is weird that the mother thought this was credible evidence for the existence of god that she wrote a public article about her child's dream. Maybe she is going to convince her daughter to write a book
