Looks more to me like an arrowhead piercing something. A cross in a potato? Looks more to me like an arrowhead piercing something.

Did everybody, Worldwide, get snowed in lately...'tsunami'd'...or just plain frozen? Yikes!...Even Florida's gettin' frozen! And speaking of Florida; whatever happened to our longtime Gifster, Eve? Anyway... Stardust?...Is the below link, perhaps, an actual photo of... "A fundie in search of..." [that (accidentally misplaced) eBay spud with the cross?] Or maybe...and, indeed, much more commonplace... "A fundie reading his bible"? http://bastardlogic.files.wordpress.com/2007/11/head_up_ass.jpg 2010, huh? "The more things change...yada, zama." Sorry, folks, for all those dumb questions.

But it frustrates me that no one raises a very important question. If people see the likeness of the Virgin Mary (in oil stains, sandwiches etc.), it assumes that they KNOW what Mary looked like, doesn't it. I don't think that there were any cameras around then. All these 'likenesses' are recognized as such because they are based on paintings that were done centuries after Mary's death. If we don't know what she looked like, how can we recognize 'likenesses' of her? We see these stories over and over. But it frustrates me that no one raises a very important question.

There it was! A perfect smiley-face on the onion. Two little round green eyes, a crooked half-smile. Of all the rotten Irish-atheist luck. The Christians get crosses in potatoes, Jesus on a tortilla, the BVM under a bridge and make thousands. Me, I get a smiley-face in an onion. I diced little onion smiley-face into the stew. Damn, it was good! One night as I was preparing a pot of my trademark Irish stew, I retrieved a half-onion from the back of the vegetable drawer.
