Surprising Belief

-

 About seven out of ten adults in the US believe in Angels.  It seems like most people want to believe that Angels are watching over them.  CNN just had a headline saying more Gen Z are turning to organized religion.  A more common belief was that they are falling away from it.  But it seems they aren’t attending the mega churches, but are finding faith in smaller congregations.  

I wouldn’t go so far to say that the prosperity gospel is dying, but it seems that there is a kind of overall feeling that the only ones who are rich are the leaders.  Smaller congregations share the wealth.  But over all people are believing in something that gives them protection in life.  With so much uncertainty, Angels are a simple belief that offers something substantial.  

A belief in Angels has little to do with a religion, but is more personal.  I promote my Angels but try to stay away from too much religious thought.  My theology is quite simple and allows for Angels to give guidance and protection.  A belief in Angels can be most anything a person wants it to be.  A belief in Angels can be a part of one’s spirituality.  

Angels cross all kinds of beliefs and thought.  It’s rather pretty simple to believe in Angels.  But my Angels make life and living pretty simple.  There basically is only one rule and that is to have respect for every Human Life including your own life.  If you do this you have nothing to worry about.  But I get stressed by life and living because not everyone lives this way.

This is in part why I smoke a pipe and live a rather reclusive life.  I try not to think about those in this world who don’t believe this philosophy about life.  It’s best for me to just sit quietly and meditate on my Angels.  My pipe this morning is my Nording Number 2 and my tobacco is Proper English.  My coffee is Stumptown Holler Mountain coffee.  Thank you for your time this morning and Peace and Love to each one of you.

Kind Of

 I’m kind of anti-social, but in my thinking it’s for good reason.  I’m pretty shy about my Angels.  They define who I am.  I seek to protect them as much as I can.  I’m willing to share my space, but only with a few.  Other than this I’m quiet about my Angels and it’s why I prefer solitude over many.  They say opposites attract and in my case this is very true.   I’m attracted to outgoing people.  In this regard my wife and I are opposites.  I can force myself to be an extrovert, but this is not my nature.  I prefer a quiet life of mostly solitude.  In this day of the Internet people are either outgoing or they will be alone.  I am happiest with a mind that doesn’t think too much.  But stress can give me overload.   I need diversions from life to keep my mind from overthinking.  This has been a problem for me for most of my life—even from a very young age.  Too many people and too much input causes my ...

About Good Vs. Evil

-
 My Angels told me Satan wanted to create and God wouldn’t let him, when I asked them if there were physical unions in heaven.  But here on earth creating is good.  God allows us to create all we want, within limits.  But in doing so we do the will of God knowing He is the Giver  of all life.  My Angels didn’t tell me this, but it is my thinking that we have to recognize God is the Giver of ALL life.  This is why every human life is sacred and why only God can take a human life. This is why God will overlook any sin but the taking of Human Life.  This is my theology from my Angels and why it is so important that we control both our hatred and our anger.  This is why there is the taking of human life.  Satan knows this too and why there is evil in this world.  Without righteousness humanity wouldn’t exist. This is why I believe God won’t let the world be destroyed.  There will always be wars and rumors of war, which is why livin...

Pipes and Other Things

-
 If anything happened to my pipes or my new cabinet or anything else I might own, they are only things.  I can live without things.  I don't drink enough alcohol to be an alcoholic, for example, so no, I don't need alcohol.  I'm writing this today as a reminder as to why I smoke a pipe.  I smoke a pipe for meditative purposes and for relaxation.  There are  no other reasons why I smoke a pipe.  I am not addicted to my pipes or the tobacco I put in them.   It is a known fact  that cigarette smokers smoke cigarettes because they are addicted to them.  I watch a lot of YouTube videos and one video I watched was about tobacco commercials from the late fifties through the sixties.  Those commercials sold cigarettes as pleasure and enjoyment with no mention of nicotine in any of the two hour video of ads.  The emphasis was on what cigarettes could do for you.  A lot of research and planning went into the filters of cig...
