It's very interesting to go into bookstores to see what books are selling. Bookstores feature books that people will read and, obviously, from all of the books on angels, that's a topic of great interest. It seems as if almost everyone is interested in angels. Modern society has an obsession with angels. They are the religious symbol of choice.
Angels adorn coffee mugs, T-shirts, note cards and even check books.
I recently saw an advertisement of a dog eating dinner out of an angel dog dish. I believe this interest has been created by modern man's hunger for spirituality Science has not solved all of our problems and has, in fact, created some massive problems of its own. In our modern society people want the peace that comes from belief in a higher power, but they don't want repentance. They want comfort without commitment. People are uncomfortable with God, but angels are non-threatening, and seem to meet the spiritual hunger that many desire.
