Maybe if I Squint – 2013

Every year I go through the previous year’s unexplained phenomena in search of pictures of religious apparitions. Why? Because I care.

Here are previous posts from 2012, 2011, and a few more from 2011 and  2011.

And now, here is an inspiring collection of religious apparitions from 2013:

In June, people started showing up to Terminal 3 of the Phoenix Airport in order to see Jesus’ face, that magically appeared on a floor tile. One lady visited the site every day for two weeks.

Here is a link to the article. And an enlargement.

Actually, that floor tile looks more like the Ghost of Christmas Present than it does Jesus.

 

 

Next, if Phoenix sounds boring, you can try Switzerland. Google Earth caught this on camera.  What? You can’t tell? Why it is obviously an apparition of none other than Jesus and his mother Mary. I’m glad I wasn’t driving.

Then again, it kind of looks like an ocean liner emerging from the fog… (It is hard to find a picture of an ocean liner emerging from the fog, believe me. This is the best that I’ve got:)

 

A man in Connecticut and his wife were lucky enough to have Jesus appear to them as an ink blot in their daily newspaper. The best part is that a newspaper is much cheaper than flights to Turin, Italy. (Link here.)

I think this one is pretty lame. It doesn’t look at all like Jesus. At BEST I can see Roland from A Knight’s Tale, with some kind of animal skin hat. (I will admit that this ink blot does look more like Jesus than some of the portrayals I have seen in movies…)

 

 

As a Massachusetts man was getting ready to paint, he spread out his Walmart drop  cloth – only to find Jesus looking back at him.

Personally, I have an easier time seeing Don Quixote in the drop cloth. And Walmart? Really?

 

This next one is not Jesus, it is obviously…umm…something? . A man was tie-dying a t-shirt found the Virgin Mary looking back at him. (Link here.)

Now I’m not trying to be a skeptic, but I did find it interesting to learn that the man with the t-shirt also conveniently runs a graphic design business. Free publicity, anyone?

 

A man in England spilled some fabric softener on his t-shirt, and ended up with this:

There is something about this one makes me think of Fonzie, with a beard, juggling. But that’s just me.

 

My favorite actually was discovered in late 2012, but I’m slipping it into this year’s post. It happened much closer to Zion. A man from Lehi, Utah cut a log and found a very cool image. (Link)

If you need help deciphering it, here is a clue:

 

That’s it for this year. I think overall, the visual manifestation occurrences are down, but hopefully the spiritual ones are up.
