Norwegian princess’s ‘angel school’ opens

OSLO (AFP) – A school newly created by Norway’s Princess Maertha Louise for students who wish to “get in contact with (their) angels” was due to open on Thursday at an undisclosed location because of the clamour it has caused. The project has been criticised in the Scandinavian country where some have called for the 35-year-old princess, a devotee of alternative therapies, to renounce her official title or even get medical help. Maertha Louise, who claims she is clairvoyant, says the Astarte school will offer students the chance to get in contact with their angels, described as “forces that surround us and who are a resource and help in all the aspects of our lives.” The tuition fees amount to 12,000 kroner per semester (approximately 1,500 euros, 2,100 dollars) and the programme, which involves alternative therapies such as hands-on treatment and healing, lasts for three years.

    I posted about this here…“How to acquire an imaginary angel friend” To quote myself “Funny how all these wonderful things must be TAUGHT to others instead of the supernatural being just tapping them on the shoulder and saying “howdy”.”

  2. Fritzy:

    How does one spend an entire three years studying imaginary friends?

  3. Old Viking:

    I’m really long in the tooth for such thoughts, but if the class includes some good lookin’ gals the hands-on treatment and healing has possibilities.

  4. bernarda:

    fritzy, some people spend their whole life studying imaginary friends. Normal healthy people get over it by six or seven.

    For something really disgusting, go over to onegoodmove.com and see how the Dem candidates respond to a stupid question about “prayer”.

    Have a bucket ready for barfing.

    I’m sorry, but does anyone else find it abso-fucking-lutely hilariously ironic that a school for learning how to communicate with angels, presumably xian (in this context) supernatural beings, is named after a pagan goddess (Astarte)?!!
