Window pane Virgin Mary broken

• Superstitious Folly

Holy Virgin Mary sightings are so naively preposterous I don't know whether to laugh or wring my hands. This unlikely miracle was ended with a barrage of ball bearings.

CLEARWATER, Fla. — Office windows that thousands of visitors believed bore the image of the Virgin Mary — but experts said was just corrosion — were discovered broken Monday, police said.

The three top panes that showed what appeared to be the Virgin Mary's veiled head were destroyed, with just shards of glass remaining in the window frames. The damage was discovered Monday morning, and authorities believed it was done overnight, police spokesman Wayne Shelor said.

Funny how you don't wish to have "hate speech" posted, yet you mock sincerely religious people using what could be considered "hate speech" by the target of your comments.

"what could be considered hate speech"? i think your taking this too far. most religious sightings are naively preposterous, the Catholic church has people that go out and investigate things like this. There are people who find elvis in potato chips.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Window pane Virgin Mary broken. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
