Lara Raith marriage consummation

<< < (24/25) > >>

Dina:
Harry is good looking enough. And Papa Raith, Lara and Thomas have brains. Also, Maggie LeFay, who Raith wanted. I do not think they disregard brains. But besides that, the reason for anyone wanting Harry is almost always the same. Power.

I wonder is this is a proscription of the White God to protect human bodily autonomy, free will and to push mankind to advance medical technology? The exceptions are very limited, and this is something oft stated - medical technology is about as good as magic these days.

We saw TWG give Michael the power to heal Harry's mental block - likely because Mab, a supernatural, imposed it with likely no warning. Uriel doesn't heal Harry because he tried to climb up a ladder against  building on fire and fell. He made choices there.

Even the Apostles did some healing in The Bible. Vanilla humans.

Back in the day, there were many sailing ships with graceful lines. But some had ugly cannons to defend themselves. Harry is a cannon, and often a loose one. But they have uses.

  Actually we do not know that he wouldn't if the situation was dire enough.  Lending his Grace is something archangels don't do, and Michael was a pretty safe bet, but even in his case there was some risk, because anyone can fall victim to temptation.  Michael's behavior was close to Christ like during the forty days in the desert.  In Harry's case, though not lending his Grace to him, Uriel did bend the rules a bit, that is why he is still alive.  A loop hole was looked for, found, and Harry was allowed to come back.

Is that canon?
