There are many things that have to happen before the Second Coming, but I don’t recall hearing about this in HP Group meeting: Last week an American tourist named Sandra Clifford was sightseeing in Ireland. She went to a lovely spot called the “Cliffs of Moher”, and much to her surprise she saw Jesus looking back at her. She even had the wherewithal to take pictures!
Here they are – First, from a distance:
Then a close-up:
At first glance I thought “Wow! Who’da thunk!”. But as I looked closer, I started having my doubts. First of all, we really don’t have any idea what Jesus looked like, so we need to narrow it down.
We have the Jim Caviezel modern-ish version:
Or the Americanized version that the LDS culture embraces:
But upon more careful study, I began to have my doubts. As much as the cliff looks like Jesus, you could also make the case that it looks even more like Aragorn. And, according to my wife, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that!
Or, there is an outside chance that we are really looking at
My intention is not to pick a fight with Sandra the Tourist – I’m sure she is a lovely person – but after spending several hours (minutes) researching this matter, I have come to the conclusion that it is not actually the face of Jesus embedded in that cliff.
It is a Transformer. And hopefully not a Decepticon.
Here’s the original article:

Though very late to this post I am surprised no one mentioned that the Cliffs of Moher are also known as the “Cliffs of Insanity”. At least since 1987…
Same guy as the face on mars. Coincidence, I don’t think so.
Lions and tigers and bears?! Oh, My!
At first glance, I totally saw my Uncle Hank.
Woah Nelly! And I thought I was nuts! Sometimes I see the Virgin of Guadalupe in my breakfast cereal…
I was thinking maybe you were seeing a self-portrait. Could be anyone, right?

Totally Aragorn. But do you know anyplace where Legolas could be staring at me? Now that would be worth the trip.
heehee
Thanks for clearing that up…

Maybe that’s the thing that swallowed all the snakes!!

Finding a potato chip or breakfast flake with Christ’s face on it is like winning the lottery! Have you seen how much those things go for? Crazy!
I’ve heard stories over the years of people seeing the image of Jesus in their food, including a potato chip, a tortilla, a cheese sandwich, and my personal favorite, a fish stick. (Don’t believe it? Google ’em!)
I have no doubt the stories are true. I’m sure I’m not the only one who finds inspiration in food… especially when it comes to cheesecake.
Snort. Love it. 😉
You made me laugh. And I’ll take Aragorn for the win, please.
