Merciful Angels

Joe Sacco with Chris Hedges

Saleh Mehi Eldin El-Argan, who saw the three doves, said:

"These are merciful angels who've come to us."

But the man sitting beside him said:

"Where are those angels? There is no mercy here."

Maybe there are two kinds of spirituality:

the belief that supernatural beings intervene on our behalf;
the belief that each of us has the potential for an inner transcendent state without supernatural help.
