I find it interesting how the believers never seem to figure out the images only appear when the light is just right. They never seem to grasp the concept that it's the light causing the image whether its under a light fixture shining on a wall or the back of a stop sign reflecting the sun.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Ensenada virgin no miracle. 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
