Why is it always 'Jesus' these people see? Why not Duane Allman? Jesus and Duane look alike. (Although Duane was much more talented than Jesus)

Why do Jesus and Mary constantly play at Hide & Seek all of the time? Don't these two have anything better to do, than try and out-do each other in showing up in odd places?

Shouldn't that headline be:

Why is that he always looks like a swedish tennis player? I would have thought someone from that area, would be 'swarthy, with a fine black bushy beard'. Can't see where this brown/blonde hair comes from, unless Mary was fooling around and forgot to tell Joseph.
Oops, hang on, she was.....

How is it that people who have never seen a fictional deity, that does not exist anyway, so often claim to recognize it upon seeing some vague shape in the shadows?
Could it be pareidolia?
I do like to ridicule some of these silly things, but only the ones that claim to involve a certain fictional virgin mommy that was molested by an invisible sky fairy ghost and then got pregnant with a sky fairy son who was also his own father.
I don't do the Jeebus ones though, just Virgin Mary (again).

When I look at that tree, I just see Lord British.

Oh well. Even though Jesus is supposed to be virtually indestructible, I'll bet there are still a few ways to kill him.

Better yet, how does anyone know what Jesus and/or Mary look like if they actually ever existed? Why is it everyone just accepts the fact paintings done long after the time these mythical people would have existed are what they actually look like.
We know better and it has been said before, but it never gets a significant portion of the attention. I encourage skeptics to point this flawed logic out if they happen to be writing the editors of any news agencies regarding these sightings. The more we repeat the talking point, the more the news will note it in their reports.

I just looked at the picture and the caption, "image seen in tree only at night". The picture is of the image of a face created by the shadow of the light hitting the tree.
"Look, when I turn on this flashlight and it's dark out, the shadow makes a face on the tree. I wonder why you can't see the face with the lights on?" :rolleyes: I can't believe they seriously wrote that.
Lewis said the image appears every night and then vanishes.
"The face forms where the knot is," Lewis said. "Then, when you come down, there is texture. There are waves in the tree and that forms the knees and the feet. Then when the sun goes down, the street light that is right above the tree casts shadows across it and forms something that looks like Jesus."Oh my word. are these people seriously surprised the image vanishes? I just can't get over that.

He knows what he's doing... just look at the finger he uses to point it out.

So the carpenter is reincarnated as a tree. Ironic. I wonder what John Holmes came back as?

Should I find it tragic, amusing, or ironic that Jesus, once upon wood, is now into wood?

The wood block above Jesus-On-The-Cross says "INRI". My sources tell me that it means "I'm Nailed Right In". [BTW - "Jesus-On-The-Cross" can be said as the acronym "JOTC!" - and you yell it like in the game YAHTZEE! Next time you see a crucifix - yell out "JOT-CEE!!" and pump your fist]

Damn those Keebler elves! Now they've absconded with the savior and are clearly holding him hostage in that tree (dessert factory) in Florida, only allowing him to breath fresh air at night.
What is their dastardly motive? Are they really minions of the fallen angel (I always suspected this based upon some of their irresistible desserts)? Or are they holding him as some sort of muse to inspire the next addictive cookie (maybe Savior Wafers or Sandals)?
