Idolatry! Wasn't that supposed to be what p!ssed off Charlton Heston, oops I mean Moses, and made him fling the tablets he'd just been given on Sinai at the people and... and... all that?

Tree Stump Virgin Mary Draws Faithful

"Where it's located, it's a bad area around here," she said. "It's a sign."

So if Moses were to appear and throw something at the idolators today it would probably just be mistaken for a drive-by of some kind.
 
Here are a couple more:

This is in my state - to be honest, it looks more like Gandalf to me.
 
What are the qualifications, exactly, for something to look like Mary?

Seems to me that it's a large oval with a smaller oval, offset and tilted, on top. And that's about it.

I think I could draw Mary in maybe 8 lines of Postscript.
 
I think you have explained why Mary is seen far more often than other holy figers
 
It is so obvious that someone was compelled to place pictures of the virgin Mary next to it, in case you didn't 'get it'.
 
Oh boy...a miracle in my own state! How convienant! Everyone gather before the sacred tree stump!


This stuff just cracks me up.
 
◊◊◊◊. Stuff like this makes me upset.
The Virgin Mary appearing in a rotten tree stump or tortilla ain't no miracle, and if it was, it's a pissy miracle.

I'd trade in all the oily window Mary appearances if god would cure one child of lukemia. Maybe feed a starving family for a day? I guess they're out of luck. :mad:
 
Some random patterns look sort of like a face.

If the sort of face has a beard, it's Jesus.

If the sort of face doesn't have a beard, it's Mary.

Case closed.
 
They need a wiccan or druid to come by and bow down to it saying "Praise Oberon" (or whatever tree spirit/godess/fairy king they like) Helps if they have artwork to back it up.:rr:
 
I think it's clear what God is telling us through this miracle:

Cut Down More Trees!
 
'Jesus, I don't know how to tell you this, but your mom was a bowling pin.'
 
Doesn't an omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent being have anything better to do than make vague shapes in dead trees and Mexican food products?
 
Why haven't people figured out that no one really knows what the characters in the bible really looked like? The pictures of "Jesus" and "Mary" are an artists conception drawn several centuries after these people lived. I don't know how fundies and other get around this obvious problem when they "see" Jesus and Mary in objects. I haven't seen this idea in these threads yet, but I am pretty new.......

Why assume He has no sense of humor?

If it were me who was omniscient, etc, I sure as Hell would do stuff like this just to keep you folks hopping! :p
