Honestly, I don't know what to think of apparitions and bleeding statues and things like that. Is it a sign? Is it a sign maybe people are reading too much into?

Odd that it tends to not have happened much in the anabaptist community...unless someone knows something I don't?

I always want to say, "So what" when I see things like this.

Jesus's face outlined in rust on the side of a silo? So what.

Mary's face on a toasted cheese sandwich? So what.

Jesus's face in the frost on the window of a funeral home? So what.

I think these things are all about people wanting so desperately to connect with Jesus that they see his face everywhere. Personally, I think they could look like any face or any woman, but others see Jesus and Mary because they want to.

It's interesting that I saw an article in Slovakia that was about some Muslims who saw Muhammed's face in a rock formation, and they were chastised by the leader of their community for looking at an image of the prophet, which is a sin to them.
