Another Shell Game

A woman in Winston-Salem, NC has a seashell she says has an image of Jesus on it. So of course she’s selling it on eBay. Actually she’s selling “a small wooden curio cabinet approximately 7” x 10” x 2” filled with various types of beans and a simple sea shell in the middle.” In case you’re not certain why a Jesus seashell is better than a grilled cheese sandwich, she explains: “Please note this item is not grilled cheese, it won’t rot, decompose or shrivel up and wither away; it is an actual sea shell you will be able to cherish forever.” As DeBeers used to say, “Seashells are forever.”

I Knew I Felt A Stirring In My Chest

A woman in Florida has a mammogram which she says shows an image of Jesus Christ. In her words:

“I went in for a regular mammogram screening where several x-rays were taken. The doctor thought he had seen something unusual and called me back one week later. On this second visit, only one image was taken of the area of concern. As soon as the film showed up on the screen, the image of Jesus Christ was clearly visible. The technician and I were astonished and immediately felt a pleasant presence. Needless to say, I was blessed to find that all was well and I am in good health.”

And that there’s an outlet to sell it on eBay.

It’s Curtains For Jesus

People are flocking to Raymond Limon’s house at 1166 W. Magnolia Ave, San Bernardino, CA to see the face of Jesus Christ on a pair of cream-colored curtains. The image appears at night when the family room has been lighted. This isn’t the first religious sighting in the neighborhood. Eleven years ago someone found wrinkles on a tree that many believed were the image of the Virgin Mary. Maria Limon, who is separated from her husband, thinks this is the real thing and that God is telling them to reconcile their marriage. Others believe it’s a sign that they need to go to Ikea and get some new curtains.

Holy Pair Gets Stoned

Last week Ethel Hartman of Jackson Township, Ohio was awakened by a mysterious flash of light shining on her bed. The next day her son was working in the garden when he came across a rock with the image of the Virgin Mary on it. He then found one adorned with Jesus Christ. The family welcomes people to come and see the rocks. They live just outside Massillon, in Jackson Township, at the corner of Amhearst and Traphagen Street. This place rocks. [map]

Salt Of The Earth…I Mean, Heavens

A shrine has popped up by an expressway underpass in Chicago where people say salt stains on the concrete look like the Virgin Mary. Believers are flocking to the site even though the new Pope has made no public comment about it nor booked a flight yet.

POSTSCRIPT: On May 6th a man was arrested for scrawling the words “big lie” over the stain. Authorities then painted over the whole thing. R.I.P.

LATER THE SAME DAY: The Chicago Tribune reports that, like Jason, the image is back. “One or more people somehow began to remove the paint. It was not known how they did it, but by afternoon, the image was back largely intact and apparently with no sign of the graffiti that had marred it.”
