I’m not saying Christianity correlates with stupidity, but...

Please educate me on what you see.

I see Jesus.

I haven't finished this article yet, but the thesis seems to be that religious belief, like the belief in conspiracy theories or flat earth, is symbolic, in that most people don't actually act on those beliefs, as opposed to knowledge about things like chairs, based on which we sit down. (Then there are people who debate empty chairs, so it's complicated.)

I think you're making the point about the new rules for interpretation.

I was referring to the "Haven't thought this through" comment. Tightening the qualifications seems wise to me. i.e. frorider's Photoshop.

I dunno, man. Suggesting that belief in toast Jesus and butt Jesus is superstitious is about 0.02” away from realizing that belief in Jesus Jesus is superstitious too.

IMHO, believing there was once a man with a message is undeniable. It does take faith/superstition to believe the rest. To me it doesn't negate the message either way. But I believe in the power of the Seahawks 12th man too. So there's that.

By intensely studying the photo of the dog's asshole I would say you are correct. We need to get the boys at the Vatican to approve this miracle ASAP.

Pope like Jamie Damon or POTUS in a way. He has people and a process to narrow the field before he gets involved. FWIW, there are probably as many wingnut Bishops as there are wingnut US politicians in seats of like power.

Ya Cisco is a little slow today. Obviously I knew what he was referring to. Was hoping he would figure it out.

Human verification of miracles is an inherently idiotic enterprise. If you’re a middling student of history, as I am, you see that superstitions and miracles have an inverse relationship to the general level of science and collective ‘average’ intelligence.

The Catholic Church has been on this amusing slide for centuries. I’ve seen interviews with the Vatican dude whose job was to stay abreast of science & use that knowledge to officially show that a miracle wasn’t…a miracle.

Since many higher ups in the CC are privately atheist or agnostic, I’m sure many of them chuckle and/or sob at the futility of this endeavor. As a last resort they’ve bumped it up to the Pope level to ascertain ‘true’ miracles. Guess when that doesn’t work out they’ll have to bump it up to a higher level.

Maybe, probably, I missed what your question was. How could one guy handle the job. I'm pretty steeped in RC culture. 70% of my public HS class was RC so just trying to help. And FWIW as part of MY religion, I don't care much what anyone else believes. If you can believe that in this day and age.

Is it Jesus is a dog’s asshole or Jesus is a god’s asshole?

Yes

I see Jesus.

My uncle is a Green Bay Packers fan and he has a toaster that burns the Packers logo into his toast every morning. Seems like it would be easy to make a Jesus toaster too.

Does a certain former POTUS know about such toasters?? Seems like a financial opportunity made in heaven.

[XXX-er]

who hasn't mixed it up eh ?

[SKIP IN7RO]

I see Jesus.

Butter that toast and strap it to a cat's back.

[old goat]

That there is anything is a miracle. Therefore everything is a miracle. Now the Pope can take a nap.

Jesus’ image on toast is so 2014

At any rate, Mcski wins the Image of Jesus competition. That should go straight to Francis’ desk for immediate ruling.
