Not_Scarevangelist Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Do you know? I challenged a Christian to show me an example of a true miracle today... He said - the Holy Fire of Jerusalem. Do you think this is a miracle? Is there a scientific explaination of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L.B. Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Yeah... the "holy fire" in Jerusalem is authentic. So are the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin, the miracle healings at the "revival" in Florida, and the Easter Bunny. The great thing about all this supernatural garbage is that there's always a concentrated group of "true believers" of one stripe or another who just HAPPEN to be around when the magic goes down. Oddly, there NEVER seem to be any OPPONENTS of any of these groups who miraculously get convinced and converted by the arrival of these "miracles". It always just seems to be a classic case of group-think, the power of suggestion, unimpeachable gullibility and, of course, the desire to fit in to one's peer group and see what the exalted leaders SAY you're supposed to be seeing. Holy Fire... yeah. I ate something wicked earlier, and it's causing a mighty, rushing wind to blow through my room... once, a little while ago, I actually made a strange noise, like tongues, and then called out "Jesus Christ!". Maybe that was evidence of a miracle, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
