The Virgin Vader

Dale in Ohio found a rock in his front yard in Chelsea, MI (?) and thought an image on it looked like the Virgin Mary. Or maybe Darth Vader. He says “I was so struck by the image I am not sure what to do.” So of course he decided to put it up for sale on eBay, but not before admitting “I honestly am feeling guilty for listing this gift.” So guilty he set the minimum bid at $1.00 and the shipping at a flat $50.00.

Barking Up A Religious Tree

People in East Chicago, Indiana, have been flocking to see two trees, one which they say has an image of Jesus holding his hands together and looking down [see photo on left], while the tree next to it shows the Virgin Mary looking over at her son. The tree on the other side has plain bark. How boring.

Postscript: City officials have turned off the streetlight that’s critical to seeing the image because residents complained about the traffic jam. And the large fight that broke out on Friday night.

Virgin Doorway

A door from the home of Roger Culver, Flatrock, Michigan, was burned two different times. The result is what he believes to be a scorched image the Blessed Virgin Mary. And a moneymaker on eBay. As a door it’s expensive. As a previously unknown copy of Munch’s The Scream, it’s a steal.

Rockin’ Whoever

A woman in Cameron, Illinois who collects rocks has one that amazingly was split when she found it by a local creek. Some friends say a design on it looks like the Virgin Mary. Others think it looks like Jesus. One thinks it looks like a “cherub angel,” which is, well, redundant.

(S)he Appears On Seashells By The Seashore

It might sound fishy, but a California man is selling a seashell with an image of the Virgin Mary on eBay, of all places. Or maybe it’s Jesus. The shell’s owner, David Johnson, isn’t sure. Neither is Father Hanna Sakkab of St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church in City Heights who, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune, thought “it evoked either Jesus Christ or the Virgin Mary, crowned with a halo and carrying a baby.” Johnson found it on a beach in Monterey, CA and held onto it for a year. It would look great on a puka shell necklace.

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.
