Now why on Earth would someone like me question the intelligence of people who claim their omnipotent savior appeared to them in a vision of mud

Why not? If you see an image and Jesus pops into mind, then it is certainly an inspiration, right? It is not to say that Jesus made that imprint or that Jesus was actually there. It is to say that this image reminds the individual so much of Jesus. There is nothing too terribly crazy about it, even if you're not a believer.

And I quote:
Stromile sees it as a blessing God wants her to share.

Blessing:
1 a : the act or words of one that blesses b : APPROVAL, ENCOURAGEMENT
2 : a thing conducive to happiness or welfare
3 : grace said at a meal

Seems to me she DOES think this was an "act" God wants her to share....

Anime, my hat is off to you. Apparently you have the tolerance of a Saint. Great quality to have.

I agree. We may not all share the same religion, but "tribal tolerance" is a blessing in and of itself!

Thanks!

I like to think perception and patience are among my strongest qualities.
