Well, they may be female (if they can be said to have gender at all). But that picture surely isn’t of Christian angels. Sexy, blonde, thin, buxomous and Dianic? It seems a little like Mohammed’s promise of 72 virgins.

Thank you for posting this story! Prayers have been lifted up for all in the path of those horrible storms, since they started their rampage night before last.

So many have lost loved ones, so many seriously hurt, so many homes destroyed! May He BLESS each precious soul in special ways.

IMHO, now is not the time to bicker about whether angels are male or female. Geesh!

Many prayers going out to the people who went through this sudden horror. Many of those who were spared their lives lost their homes and possessions and I can only imagine how devastated they are.

As for little Kyson, apart from the tragedy of losing his mother, he is lucky that he is alive, will have no memory of the event, and has grandparents that are young enough to raise him. I feel for the grandfather though, it must be very hard to find your daughter dead like that. He was probably hoping against hope all the way there that they would both be okay. My heart aches for them and all the others.

Too bad.

Just as an off topic, I don't believe angels are female or baby cherubs. I don't know why pictures show angels as soft feminine characters. I can't find them in the Bible.

Short version: Those aren't angels. They are putti. It's mostly centuries of sloppiness that's gotten them labeled angels.

thank you for the ping. What a miracle! Am I assume from your comments (and the obvious devastation) that this little baby’s parents are both dead? How awful. Thank the Lord that this little guy is alive. Again, thank you for the ping.

Do you really need to nitpick? Maybe that’s what some people believe, can’t you respect that right? Unfortunately, not everyone reads the bible. And among many that do, not all of them read it the way you do!

I have businesses near there.

The TEMA workers who found the baby were quite choked up when they stopped in to clean up afterwards at one of my washes.

You're correct, in the Bible they're male and and they have strength. Perhaps some people are not aware of this.

I would love to hear the story, but that would be an invitation to an argument. I’d rather be deprived of the story than watch the inevitable insults.

I’ve been praying for all those affected by these tornadoes. Another prayer is on the way for this precious babe and his family.

...."your out of place ‘off topic’ wrecked this thread"...

I wasn't the one that put blonde women up as angels and somehow inferred they were sacred. Doesn't the Jesus figure like women that aren't blonde? Why don't we just tie a yellow ribbon around an oak tree, or better yet wear one. That would show our solidarity with the storm victims. Oh, and don't forget to light a candle, that's sure to help them.

Why would an angel morph? It was most likely a demon. There is no record in the Bible of angels changing into other forms. A demon may take other forms to lie to you.

No I had not heard this story or seen the video. Thank you very much!!! God will provide for that child. Has already done so miraculously. Thank God for loving grandparents. Prayers continue for those who have lost loved ones and everything they owned and for all the devastation. Am glad President Bush will be coming to TN today.
