We've had stories of Pompeii, and of wars, and numerous little anecdotes about blind men, and of birds and animals, that I can only relate to something like Aesop's Fables. Why do some of the believers here think that their little tales will influence others - or indeed, that they are qualified to instruct? Children like fairy tales - and often believe them for a while - but adults, through experience of life, have decided what they believe, and upon the moral code by which they want to live, so are very unlikely to be convinced by the patronising words of dubious wisdom that clearly influence the impressionable minds of the story-tellers.
