Correction: a “toetally” new meaning for me!

So toe stubbing is what we’re being cautioned against, eh? Suddenly the end of Acts 9:5 takes on a whole new meaning for me.

It’s a Jawa!

Does this mean we have to convert to Jediism now?

Jones –

The FSM is like the church of Bob and the invisible unicorns that were all the rage 5 or 10 years ago — vaguely funny in a juvenile kind of way, but losing all effect when repeated over and over and over and over and over and over and over again until your head explodes. Come up with a new anti-religious joke, okay?

I look at it and think “my spoon is too big.”

I think we can all agree that this looks like the noodly arms of the FSM reaching out to touch us all.

I like “puffin” and “dementor”, but my first thought was “Obi-Wan Kenobi”.

It could very well be toxic mold and may do a great deal of harm to the family if they don’t control it soon.

Why don’t any of these images ever show up in STUNNING TECHNICOLOR ?

Anyway, I just watched The Seventh Seal last night, looks like Death to me.

Of course it is a typical cameo appearance by Al Hitchcock in whatever that famous movie I can’t recall the title. He crossed the screen briefly as one of the passers-by covered in nun’s hood. It’s his nose that gave away. Frolic on the wall instead of his favorite screen?

Dougal: Images appearing on skirting boards. That’s a bit whacky, isn’t it?
Ted: It’s strange alright. It’s like the Turin Shroud, or that woman in Sligo – Padre Pio keeps appearing in her teabags.
Dougal: Or the time I saw God’s face in that painting. That was a bit strange!
Ted: It wasn’t that strange, Dougal. It was a painting OF God.

It’s one of the humanoid crewmembers of the Cygnus from The Black Hole. Mary’s been turned into a cyborg!

[...] Blessed Virgin Mary Finds New Venue: Living Room Wall Fresh from her longtime engagement on a garage door, the Virgin Mary has now appeared on a living room wall after a construction mishap. Pessimistic Phil Plait from Bad Astronomy thinks it looks a little more like the Grim Reaper. [...]

I think of the poster from X-Files that says, “I Want To Believe”. That’s what these things remind me of. People need something tangible to point to, to make it easier to believe.

I immediately thought of Whistler’s Mother that I saw only last week in Musée d’Orsay in Paris.

Wait, there’s a religious significance to washing your feet? I just do it because I like having clean feet.

This tells my evil side I could make up a cheap “miracle” and make a fortune off it.

And I wouldn’t even have to work hard on it.

The video shows the wall without that outline and in one shot I can see what would resemble the Virgin Mary much better than the outlined picture above. But in two of the shots I clearly see a big rabbit face and ears.

They’ve had a difficult three years, they have framed pictures of Jesus and Mary on their wall, so it’s no surprise they didn’t see the rabbit. Rabbits just don’t draw the crowds, ya know?

It looks like many things if you’re willing to be creative, but the first thing I thought when I looked at it really was “hooded woman.” But Mary? Well, it actually might be – unfortunately, there’s just a tad insufficient detail in a generic insinuation of a hooded woman, drawn in outline, to decide the identity of said woman.

The only question is, what message is James McNeill Whistler trying to send us?

So, I guess the question is: why is death the Virgin Mary fencing in a hidjab?
