Now why on Earth would someone like me question the intelligence of people who claim their omnipotent savior appeared to them in a vision of mud

Why not? If you see an image and Jesus pops into mind, then it is certainly an inspiration, right? It is not to say that Jesus made that imprint or that Jesus was actually there. It is to say that this image reminds the individual so much of Jesus. There is nothing too terribly crazy about it, even if you're not a believer.

And I quote: Stromile sees it as a blessing God wants her to share. Blessing: 1 a : the act or words of one that blesses b : APPROVAL, ENCOURAGEMENT 2 : a thing conducive to happiness or welfare 3 : grace said at a meal Seems to me she DOES think this was an "act" God wants her to share.... |

Anime, my hat is off to you. Apparently you have the tolerance of a Saint. Great quality to have.

So the implication here then is that if god had NOTHING to do with the image, then it is neither "Divnine" nor is it a "Blessing".....
That leaves me with 4 possible conclusions....help me out Christians. 1. People are misusing words like "Divine" and "Blessing" to describe this event out of ignorance or stupidity. A genuine mistake with no malicious intent. 2. They are intentionally trying to mislead readers by using terms like "Divine" and "Blessing". 3. YOU are wrong and the witnesses truly believe this to be an act of god. 4. The author of the article has manipulated the facts of the story in some way. Feel free to choose 1-4, offer a legitimate, alternative solution/possibility, or continuing ignoring the issue and thus reaffirming my beliefs. That Anime won't stand up for what he believes in (I attribute that to youth....buck up kid), and that religion is a hoax. |

Why I am impressed Isaac. Not only is your response, simple AND logical, it's shows that you have put thought into it as well. I expected to see your own photos this weekend, not find out we share similar opinions about the event. |
