    It's Dail Eireann she needs to appear in and sort out that mess we call a government. Even a miracle can't save us now!:(

    She'll probably appear on the runway of the airport.

    Let's see the devout get down on their knees in front of an oncoming 747

    Knock, Fatima, Lourdes etc etc are just one big con

    the scenario is the same with all of them...

    i.e. devoutly catholic village in the middle of nowhere that no one has ever heard of, and suddenly out of the blue the VM appears, and then Bingo !!it becomes a tourist attraction making a tidy packet:rolleyes:


    anyway wasn't Knock explained....some guy was showing slides on the gable end of a house and some drunken local woman taught it was the VM she was seeing

    Dougal from Father Ted: Isn't it weird the way Our Lady appeared on a golf course?

    Going by their requirements - she might have a good chance of a start.

    not sure if she'll have the right Visa though :)

    COIR could have got her to get on the no vote bandwagon, vote no or the virgin mary will be super pissed off. the poster campaign would have been great. she must have been busy appearing on random food items in the run up to the vote

    Thats` what I`m asking, I wasn`t going to trawl through the whole thread.
    Back on topic, a charlatan psychic predicts that the Virgin Mary is going to suddenly appear at knock, and that is enough to send hordes of people down there waiting. In this day and age, given everything we now know about the falsehoods of the ancient superstitions, is this not worrying?

    how is it worrying? no one is going to force their way into your home and drag you kicking and screaming to it

    Its an obvious publicity stunt attempted at diverting attention away from the inanimate lump of wood known as "The Holy Stump of Rathkeale". :cool:

    Just been out in the car and the roads were much busier than usual in the area - plenty of vans around. The road to Tuam was very busy.
    Local radio was reporting a few thousand gathered outside at 3pm - but no sign of any vision then. Not heard anything since - what a surprise :D
    Wonder if this Joe Coleman will have much to say about it?
