Divine Protection Theory
The first theory posits that individuals who haven’t broken a bone before might be on the receiving end of supernatural protection. The belief is that guardian angels, spirit guides, or maybe even deceased loved ones are actively shielding people from physical harm. This concept has apparent biblical roots, to quote Psalm 34:19-20: “The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all; he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken.” People who’ve never had a broken bone despite being in dangerous situations in their past find comfort in this explanation. It is common in religious circles to share stories of miraculous near-misses and instances where there should have been a serious injury but somehow escaped unscathed.
