I was a little dismayed that one of my favorite classes, the Oracle was removed from the new Pathfinder.
With the advent of the Angelic bloodline the sorcerer now has the ability to heal though the method of that healing is confusing...
One of the key points of both the Sorcerer and the Oracle was that neither knew from where there powers came from. The Sorcerer knew that somewhere in their ancestry there forefather had intimate relations with something not altogether human; like a angel, demon, air elemental, etc...

With the latest update each of the sorcerer bloodlines are neatly configured with not only where they get their powers but also what type of powers they get.

Again, I am going to harp on the Angelic/Demonic bloodline; they are trained in 'religion' when religion does not seem to be a viable trait for a sorcerer.
At present the only viable way to describe a Angelic bloodline Sorcerer is as a weak (less HP, less armor choices, less weapon choices) with limited spells (no channeling without a feat, no ranged offensive cantrips without using a feat), less capable cleric without a Anathema.

I created a Sorcerer and was forced to choose Angelic since nobody in my group wanted to play a healer.
There is one glaring omission in the divine cantrips and that is the lack of any offensive ranged magic in the list.
This limits a sorcerer character to basically standing back and avoid combat while trying to offer some of the limited support that a divine sorcerer can access.
In my case, my sorcerer happened to be a gnome so I was able to use my only ancestry feat to select "first world magic" and thereby get access to primal cantrips which gave me 'ray of frost' so I could be useful against something other than undead.
I would suggest that divine spell casters (especially sorcerers) be given access to some ranged offensive cantrips because it seems wrong that for a character to be viable in a group they have to use a feat.

According to the description of a basic shark, it is a shark that is 10ft long but it is considered a small shark.
A dolphin which is approximately 6ft long is considered medium...
Can anyone explain this?
It should be noted that a 10ft long shark is expected to occupy a 5ftx5ft area.
