In college we called that "Creative Writing 101", aka 'Fiction'. LOL >(In Hinduism they call this kind of event ghatana) - Sanskrit for coincidence)< I don't necessarily refute the existence of angels- but if they do exist, why they would assist that clown in his greedy quest for riches is beyond my comprehension.

Anyone who brags that they were saved by Divine Providence from a disaster where many perished has a strange sense of entitlement, IMO.

As crazy as that guy is ... I wouldn't discount what he said regarding that incident. Lot's of things go on behind the scenes that I don't pretend to understand ... it is when he gets into describing incidents where he made a ton on this stock or that stock that I have problems accepting that it was necessarily an angel -- Einstein said, "God does not throw dice." I think perhaps he believed that chance or probability were desciptions we use to understand deterministic phenomena that are too complicated or intricate for us to grasp ... Moreover, I believe God is active and moves all sorts of circumstances daily in this world, even moving individuals that intend evil without their knowing it ... a purpose to all ... even those things that seem senseless to us. Even, if you don't believe that -- you should read the OT story of Joseph sometime ... very moving and interesting story from that point-of-view. Lots of dimension to the story -- different players believing different things (Joseph's brothers for instance -- had more of a concept of a kind of KARMA instead of the concept of God which Jospeph held)-- causing them to act in different ways ...
