Fortuneately, I haven't been affected personally by suicide, but I have been quite intriqued with the points presented. I'd like to add my own two cents. > If we follow along with the premise that it is OUR choice to choose God > or not (EP where the guy died and had a choice between the light or > darkness) than I cannot believe God would ban someone from heaven who > truly loved him. It would be inconsistent with free will and His love. IMHO, I feel that God would judge each situation and life individually. He understands the pain that would drive someone to that end, but it's hard to say what he would do because we are limited in our knowledge. > > Now, whether or not that can be addressed on TV would be a pretty > flammable subject based on what reaction people would have to TBAA > saying God will love you whether you commit suicide or not.

Wouldn't the show be > setting itself up for a legal fall? > I agree, this could be quite touchy. However, what I would like to see, is perhaps someone who tries to commit suicide, but is saved in time - eg. a person overdoses and comes very close, but the paramedics manage to revive the person. I'd like to see how the angels help the person deal with the pain after - to go on living. I don't know, maybe this is too close to "Into the Light" - I missed that one, darn it, and I really hope they rebroadcast it soon. > How about calling Tess's "wee doggie" Jazz? > I love it...It's the perfect name... Add my name to the affirmatives on that one :-) Also, someone mentioned how the angels don't step in when someone is about to commit suicide - I agree that it has to do with free will(maybe the dog should be called 'Will?' He does seem to run around quite freely ;-) I know, bad groaner), but seriously, what about the episode with the reporter who hits a boy with her car - I forget the name of the ep - Monica stepped in at the crucial moment there? Just a thought. Anyways, that was more like a quarter than 2 cents. I'd better quit while I'm behind ;-) GB's Marlis ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Apr 1997 16:08:21 -0500 (EST) From: deelady @ . .addy..com To: tbaangel @ . .execpc.com Subject: misc and ep we'd like to see. To One and All Ok, I "think" I have my mind back now. :) (thanks to all my friends for the help) I just finished reading my mail, so I thought I'd take a quick sec and respond. I don't remember the episode "Rock N Roll Dad" (at least I don't think I do). What was that one about (better yet, does anyone have a copy of it?) AMarsh wrote >>Once you have been saved doesn't mean it's a free ride<< Amen sis! You're right, I knew that, but "forgot" to put that in, Thanks! I wouldn't want anyone getting the "wrong" idea (like my ex has). To Darla and Red, ok I don't know how many "members strong" AiA is, but count me in too!!! I *still* have a hard time believing John Dye is *real* (I mean, are we sure he's not *really* an angel in human disguise?) and that there are other men like John/Andrew. (I have "met" a few from this list, who I consider to be canidates in that area) :) Ok, I'll stop drooling. As for an episode I'd like to see, I agree with Skydancer, I'd like to see the angels deal with the subject of abuse (and I too think it should be an emotional type of abuse, as that type is really more common than what most people think). I know TBAA has touched the subject of abuse in other episodes, but only in relation to something else. I'd like to see them deal with it head on. I'm sure Tess and Andrew would be able to "handle" that subject just fine, but I have a "feeling" Monica would have a real hard time with it. Of course, if the abuse was shown as Skydancer said (in relation to men) then Andrew "may" just have trouble with that one too. What does anyone else think? Ok you guys, I'm not a "down with men" type of person, so *please* don't take this abuse thing as an insult. There are all types of abuse (physical, emotional, mental, sexual) and not all are received from men (some come from family and friends, without them realizing they are doing things that are abusive. I know all about this subject first hand, so if you want more info, email me personally). So *please*, *please*, don't take any of this wrong. I truely believe there are good, kind and loving men (and women) out there, I just haven't had the pleasure of knowing any. Until I joined this list, that is. Now I "know" (and I really wish I could actually say that for real) a few of you! :) Ok, enough for me for now. I need to rest my mind. Don't want to over tax it the first day it's back. Maybe later.

So would I!!! Wouldn't it be great if we could all get together sometime this summer and actually meet each other for real? We could maybe make it an annual TBAA list reunion, or something similar. Of course, I could even stretch my over-active imagination, and say it could be held in Salt Lake City, (and even really stretch it) with The cast and crew of TBAA!!! Whad ya think? Anybody else?

The listing for this last one listed 28 topics, but The problem is probably with your mail-reading software. AOL's mail software has a limited "buffer" capacity-- the amount of text it can cram into a piece of mail-- and an annoying habit of just not showing you the rest. Try downloading that "partial" digest to a text file and reading it on your word processor. I'd almost bet money it'll all be there. If you don't know how to download a piece of mail, ask customer service at AOL (it involves the Download Manager software, or did last time I was on AOL, many, *many* moons ago...). If that doesn't solve the problem, e-mail me *directly* and I'll try to think of something else. :) Diane E ListNanny # "Nothing that is made by God is queer."

If you are having this problem, could you e-mail me privately, please? I am particularly interested in knowing if there is anyone *not* on AOL having this problem. Just FYI, there appears to have been some sort of blockage out there in cyberspace, because suddenly I'm gettting messages here from days ago, and bounces from last week of stuff sent to AOL just began arriving in friends' mailboxes. Also, messages from as early as the 24th are only now arriving in friends' mailboxes from *non*-AOL sources, so whatever it was wasn't only ADDY...but AOL seems to have been affected pretty seriously. I don't know if the digest problems are related to this, or if they are something else entirely, so I'm not quite sure how to proceed...but I am looking into it. :-) Take care, Jennie finabair @ . .addy.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Apr 1997 19:59:33 -0600 (CST) From: gryphon @ . addy.com To: tbaangel @ . .execpc.com Subject: ListNanny: Last call for intros for Members Page!

I'm setting an arbitrary deadline for this of midnight, EST, Saturday, 4/5/96, because I'll be doing the final general paste-up this weekend.

Well, I have been lurking around long enough. I'm John C. Weaver. Born and raised in Southern California for a long time. Called the San Fernando Valley my home. I can't say how TBAA has touched my life, or if I had any angels visited me that I remember. All I can say is God wanted me to wake up from the nightmare I was existing in. Now, my heart is open, my mind still is cluttered, and I thank God for that. Funny....all the time that I went to church, stayed awake at the sermons, even participated in the Chancel Choir, I never got the wakeup call from God, until now. God be with you all John C.
