		<description>Yes it is Siri, but you can be certain it will be pointed out time and time again .... by really smart people ... who seem to have nothing better to do than to point it out constantly.</description>

		<description>As a big fan of Imhotep, I take personal insult to your attempt to belittle him in this cat&#039;s fur.  Arguably the world&#039;s first great minds and he is the only Ancient Egyptian you can think of to razz?  

Akhenaten.  Now there is a dork to razz.  Consumed with who worshipped what. 

Hmphhh.</description>

		<description>How does anyone know what Jesus was supposed to look like anyway.  If anything, it is just an obscure face.  I see crap like that all the time in the carpet, and in clouds.

On another point .... why even point it out?  Oh yeah ... I forgot ... ridicule makes people feel big ... even really smart people.  Get over it man.</description>

		<description>wow this is destiny...

My cats name is Imhotep...

and when I look into his black fur I can clearly make out what is either Cthulhu or the FSM.</description>

		<description>I can normally see the face when someone suggest it/points it out, but I could not see anything that resembled a face on this one.

I agree, slow news day.</description>

		<description>Because it would not make for good news. &quot;Jesus face in someones cats fur&quot; just sounds more newsworthy than &quot;yet another trickery of our brains&quot;. News is unfortunately a business like any other. So if there are no real news, you have to make them to get viewers/readers, etc.
What a weird world we live in.</description>

		<description>They always miss the opportunity to actually educate the public about this phenomenon. Do they ever even say the word paradolia? Why can&#039;t they just say:

&quot;here&#039;s another example of how our brains are wired to see patterns in random noise, particularly faces, isn&#039;t that an interesting quirk of the human brain? Here&#039;s two dots and a curved line : ) that&#039;s all it takes to see a face. It&#039;s paradolia.&quot;

What would be so bad about that?!</description>
