While I certainly would not refuse angels coming to get me at my death, it would also be nice to be brought to heaven by one of these - as long as it was the real heaven, of course.

There was another thread a while back about the "Holy Family" and LBK hijacked it claiming that the concept wasn't Orthodox and that Icons of Joseph carrying the Christ child were uncanonical. Edit: Found it, http://www.orthodoxchristianity.net/forum/index.php/topic,45382.0.html

Honestly, if I hadn't just read about the Winged Hussars on Bad-ass of The Week (hey mods, is using bad-ass OK per the new rules, or at least in this case since it's a proper noun?) I would've thought this was straight out of some fantasy novel. |
