Big Bad Voodoo Posted December 14, 2012 #1 Share Posted December 14, 2012 As title siad, do you believe in real life genies? Not as jinns but rather as good people who secretly done noble things to help others. Idea comes after I watched french movie called Amelie but I also remembered x file episode where Genie was introduced. Nevertheless I like to hear your thoughts.

Ever Learning Posted December 14, 2012 #2 Share Posted December 14, 2012 i dont understand, are u asking if theres really good people who do good things? like go out of their way to help others or something more than this. after watching disneys alladin we know that being a genie is slave labour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarakore Posted December 15, 2012 #9 Share Posted December 15, 2012 People who do noble things in secret, although never heard of them as genies, exist as far as I believe. Sometimes divine intervention is also required and stories of angels appearing to help others are also not unheard of. Stories like this are really important for those who believe but not very important to others who do not. It is all modern folklore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGirl Posted December 15, 2012 #14 Share Posted December 15, 2012 no there are no such things as genies that i know of. i wouldn't trust one anyway, based on what i've seen in the movies they always want to trick you or make you sorry you wished for what you did! jerks.

You are correct, they have been dreamed up by various authors writing books.The kind that make children happy the same as Fairies, Witches, Goblins and a host of other Creations. Kids love to hear stories of wicked witches etc, being outwitted, its all part of growing up.And I bet you will go to see "The Hobbit", as I will, pure fantasy but it entertains for a couple of hours,and guess what, they aint no cuss words in this movie. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spud the mackem Posted December 16, 2012 #18 Share Posted December 16, 2012 A man and his wife were sitting outside a cafe, both 50 yrs old, when the wife accidently rubbed an empty bottle. Whoosh out popped a genie,who said I can only give your husband one wish,the husband thought then said I wish my wife was 21 yrs younger,well the wife stayed at 50 yrs old but the husband was immediately transformed into a 71 year old. Never trust Genies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
