Has anyone claimed to have married an angel? That was a song by Richard Rogers and Lorenz Hart and a Broadway musical in 1938. I can’t find any stories about people claiming to marry an angel. Lots of people claim to have seen angels.
And then there is the regilion-based argument about Genesis 6: "The recent fantasy film Noah and a slightly related blog comment by my friend Douglas Wilson have stirred up again the question of whether the “sons of God” in Genesis 6 who married the “daughters of men” were fallen angels or the priestly line of Seth.
The article goes on with a line or argument that distinguishes between angel blood and human blood. Wouldn’t that be a sort of "angels on the head of a pin" discourse? Lots of discussion can ensue as there is no way to prove anything.
In comparison, ghosts seem more tangible. My friend, Marina, knows of two stories of women who have married ghosts, and then divorced them. Astounding to me. It was in the Toronto Star with the headline: "She married a ghost. Then she divorced him via an exorcism. Turns out that’s a trend” - go to the story HERE. All the papers have picked this up as it is so compelling a headline. Brocarde, the woman in the story, suspected her ghost husband was heating on her with Marilyn Monroe. Just like the angels on the pin - who can dispute such wonderful claims?
The next story on this topic is in the dailymail.co.uk with a point by point summary (story HERE).
Amethyst Realm, 32, from Bristol, fell in love with ghost Ray on trip to Australia
Spiritual guidance counsellor was planning to marry and have a baby with ghost
She communicated with the spirit, called Ray, through 'energies and feelings'
Ray sadly 'changed' on holiday to Thailand after falling into the 'wrong crowd'
Says ghost also have to socially distance during pandemic as they fear illness
The biggest story before these was the woman who claimed she married a pirate ghost. She was Amanda Teague, and the story was covered in 2019 - even the Washington Post covered that one (the topic was “religion”). She divorced him as well.
What is interesting is that it seems so tacky to conclude the fantasy of ghost marriage with the every day marital norms of divorce. I’ll stick with the Marilyn Monroe cheating story.
Here’s a Grimsby garden - on Ridge Road above the escarpment - this is a 200 year old house.
