It’s a Miracle!
How God chooses to reveal himself is quite miraculous, and the latest miracle occurred recently in Britain.
A British woman said she saw the face of Jesus while preparing breakfast for her 4-year-old son, London’s Daily Mail reports.
She saw the Jesus image while opening a jar of Marmite, a thick, brown spread.
Seriously though, why is this even news? There is nothing to it! A Christian saw a blob and thought it looked like Jesus, yipee. Why doesn’t it just look like a guy with a beard? Why Jesus? Becasue she is a Christian, and her brain is hard wired to see patterns, and because of pareidoloia, she sees Jesus.
Take a look at the same image upside down. Still see Jesus? Yep, and you won’t be able to look at it now withoutseeing Jesus, because of pareidoloia.
Wikipedia Bans Scientology
The Internet encyclopedia Wikipedia has blocked all contributions from computers at the Church of Scientology’s Los Angeles headquarters to stop users there from revising articles to reflect a pro-Scientology viewpoint.
While it is somewhat of a futile point since people that are ambitious can get around that by blocking their I.P.’s, using proxies or going off-site to another location, the gesture itself sends a message that the usually neutral wikipedia isn’t happy about the bombarding of Scientology propaganda on their website, which tries to have it’s content remain objective.
Penn Jillette, an avowed atheist, had an interesting commentary about the situation.
