Well here’s some breaking news that you won’t find the
government trying to cover up or blame on bad memories
and crash test dummies, time compression, nor
weather balloons.
According to a study done by the Baylor University
Institute for Studies of Religion, the majority of persons
polled believed in the interaction of angels. That’s a
55% in favor of those halo sporting do gooders.
The belief in angels and demons is still healthy and
alive in the 21st Century and that’s something to take
note of.
If you’ll notice, no ridicule accompanied the story on
the tv news nor print. It’s just a sweet look at the
beliefs we hold dear.
No scientific proof, no talking head experts, no
FOIA researches through dusty old archive shelves.
Just good ol’ faith and declaration thereof.
So we have here a majority of the population believeing
in something that they can’t prove in court nor a lab.
Why no ridicule nor debunkers and skeptics?
Because it would cause a tsunami of anger and a loss
of viewship and sponsorship.
We who believe in angels and demons don’t need a
scientist to tell us what’s real. It’s something we know
regardless of science’s inability to validate.
Sort of like what happens when we try to investigate
UFOs. Difference is UFOs show up on radar, leave
traces, photo, video, film remnants and better and
our military can put their hands on.
Those facts don’t mean a hill of beans to the media
and the authorities though. Methinks more Americans
believe we’re being visited by ETs than angels and demons
but I’m sure some smart person out there will let me know
the real figures.
Bottom line here are the standards of belief, science,
sociological issues that shine through in this study that
suprised many.
It’s okay to believe in what society says it’s okay to believe
in especially if the media and the government say it’s okay.
We don’t care though and it’s good to see a study in the media
that shows that the people decide what’s real not some
government nor secret body, the media, and that’s fine
with me. Says there’s hope for us yet.
