-Removed-So to be clear, anyone claiming to have seen an angel is a liar or deluded,...and you say that as a Christian?
For me, an atheist, a person of sound mind could misconstrue a human interaction as something angelical at a low point in their life. There is something rather powerful, for example, about a stranger who comes quickly in and out of your life and says something profound or well-timed. I can see how a theist might attribute such a random interaction to something otherworldly.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidTo me, an atheist is a person who doesn't believe in God or any of the things that go with it one of which is angels. So how can you believe in angels? You'd have to believe in God to believe in Angels. Now your saying a random interaction could be something otherworldly? You can't have your cake and eat too. You either believe in God and everything that goes with it which would include angels or you don't. It one way or the other. You are just trying to make an argument to justify what Suzie Q said as far as I can see. Don't give me the crap about reading and not understanding what I read.

EDIT: You know while they were in the neighborhood there was no crime. Once the police shut them down the crime rate in that neighborhood went up drastically.
What would that tell you Andy?

I don't believe you.
I can tell you this I didn't look for any trouble in there or did any come my way!
I think it is pretty safe to say you've never been in a bikers bar.

Read and learn a little Andy!
I don't believe their clubhouse is mentioned in the story, been a while now since I read about it.
