The angel Douglas .....

Those who want to believe, will believe. It's the same for all holy books. We all rubbish other people's holy books or patronise them as a series of folk tales and legends, but our own are held as the only true Truth. Their various gods with magical powers we doubt as being more than imagination and exaggeration, but in our own book, whichever one it is, these are, as one religion puts it so well, the Word made flesh.

And so it is with the Angel Douglas and the Holy Piby as written down by Shepherd Robert Athlyi Rogers in Anguilla, which might have been the New Jerusalem if Bob Marley hadn't come along as the major prophet of Rastafari and sanctified Jamaica.
