people will flock to anything that gives them something to believe in.

There's something hilarious about people flocking to a salt stain...
It's a papal sign! Godless sodomite fags beware!

It's something that is psychologically inherent in all humans to associate something they see with something they already recognize. Even if it is comparing a salt stain on a highway underpass to the mother of their "savior". This just makes me pity those who are religious that much more.
"Look, the virgin mary on a grilled cheese!" "Allah's likeness was seen on the tsunami that destroyed Asia!" "Allah is on the side of a sheep!"
Yeah? I have a scar that looks like Abraham Lincoln. Does that mean I am a distant relative of Lincoln, or maybe even this generation's Lincoln? Of course not. It means I have a scar that I my mind somehow sees similarities with honest Abe.
What a bunch of nutjobs.

Can we say "pattern recognition?"
And this is what drives me crazy- if a person were to create the image of Mary, it would not be a miracle. If a sentient creature on earth created an image of Mary, it would be shocking because it might imply religious recognition by a non-human. But if the image appears "naturally", it's a miracle. If "god" controlls all things, wouldn't that mean "he" created the image? I guess that's why it's seen as a miracle.. but if I were religious, I'd just see it as "god" fucking with people for a kick.

I think they should replace the pope with that little stain under the bridge.

if my religion had such a grip over people, I'd fuck with them and make them grovel at salt stains and toasted cheese sandwiches. Bitches.

i find it funny how cnn or other news sources often state in the title of their news articles like this as "faithful *flock* to see X holy sighting" etc. even the media realizes how much like sheep these people are. baaaaaaaaaaaaah.
