In reply to the discussion: I'm not religious, but there are angels on earth. [View all]Honeycombe8
(37,648 posts)18. What a wonderful story. Restores faith in humanity.
Some religious people say that doing good on earth is not what it's all about, and it doesn't help a person get into heaven. I don't believe that for a second, if there is a heaven (or whatever kind of heaven anyone may believe in or hope there is). It doesn't make sense that kindness and helping others and helping earth itself wouldn't have value.
A wonderful story about wonderful people.
