    A LOT of things can explain for what happened yesterday.

    If you do the exact same thing right now, go outside and look directly at the sun for minutes on end, you will see some more flashes and colours. :rolleyes:

    Enjoy the cataracts!

    So what exactly did you see, and did anyone present take a picture of the apparition with a camera phone?

    Well I hope that you are all happy with yourselves - whilst you were selfishly calling on the virtous one to appear, she was distracted and turned her back momentarily to appear in Knock whilst some shifty Asian dudes bundled the 79 year old missionary priest she should have been watching, into the back of a fillipino hi-ace!

    Ye believers are the most selfish bunch of deluded idiots I have ever encountered - ps, If her fella really is omnipresent, where the fcuk was he and why won't he help find the poor auld codger?

    Let me guess ... he is testing our faith right?:rolleyes:

    A lot of things happen when a bunch of gullible people get together and their imagination runs away with themselves, I remember going to Ballinspittle a few years ago and it was nuts, people seeing all sorts, if you stand and look at something for long enough you'll see stationary objects move and facial features change on statues etc. People are sheep, always looking for a crutch and will follow anything in the hope of something better. Didn't we just see that with the Lisbon vote already.:rolleyes:

    I believe that some people at knock seen nothing yesturday and some people did see virgin mary and the sun dancing. I listend to the local radio station and scores of people were ringing in explaining the sun dance, they said it was remarkable, but if you dont believe it then please get off the thread and stop making fun of it all ,because if u dont believe in it then its a waste of ur time talking about it.

    Lets get one thing straight here, the sun did not dance. If the sun did dance then it would be visible to the rest of the world and it would really **** with all the bodies orbiting around it. What did happen is people believe that they saw the sun move. Now obviously the actual sun couldn't have moved so it must have been in peoples heads. I don't mean that in a nasty way, but it's true.

    So one of 2 things happened.
    1) Mary created a second sun that was visible only to the people in knock that had none of the mass that the real sun has (so as not to distort obits etc.). The instant this sun was created she 'hid' the real sun so that it only looked liked there was one sun in the sky. This way the people in Knock would see the sun dancing but wouldn't affect the rest of us mortals.

    2) Hundreds of people went to Knock with the expectation/hope of seeing something like this. They spent a long time looking directly at the sun which can cause the human eye to see shapes. Twitches of the eye can also make it seem like it was moving. Something like this has happened to me a few times when I was staring at the light in my room. But because the people there went with the hope of seeing something they took this phenomenon to be supernatural. This spread through the crowds partially to belief and I suppose partially due to not wanting to be left out.


    As for the Miracle of the Dancing Suns in Fatima, I will see your puny Christian miracle and raise you a milk drinking Budda Ganesha! :pac:

    Lady Madonna, Joe Coleman at your feet
    Wonder how you manage to make them meet
    Who found the tree stump, when should he repent
    Did you think that Mayo was heaven sent

    Weekend time arrives with many fruitcakes
    Sunday morning eating tea and Buns
    Mayo's child has learned to tie his bootlace
    Hay where's the nuns!

    Lady Madonna, gathering at the shrine
    Wonders how you manage to make it shine
    Pa pa pa pa...
    See how they look

    Lady Madonna lying on the bed
    Listen to the chanting playing in your head

    Sunday afternoon was never ending
    Monday morning pictures didn't come
    Tuesday night my camera needed mending
    See, nice bright Sun )

    Lady Madonna, seen you in a frock
    Wonders how you managed to make it Knock.

    According to leading psychic bullsh1tter Joe Coleman our Lady will appear in Knock on Sunday at 3.00pm. this is the same guy who predicted our lady would appear in Donegal last week and people there witnessed the appearance of our lady.
    I hope if people go to Knock that someone will bring a video recorder to record this just in case she does appear.
    Heres a link to the story http://www.mayonews.ie/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=7836&Itemid=38#

    Why would it happen anywhere else , if the powers that be said that something would happen at knock then it was to happen at knock and nowhere else, if they can make the sun dance and appear in different colours then surely they can make it only to be seen at Knock.

    If you really believe that happened I feel sorry for you. Is there any functioning matter between your ears at all?

    You're right, theer couldn't be any other explanation. 'Twas definitely the good virgin mary herself. Wiggling the sun around while saying hello to the good people of Mayo. Since you're such a skeptic I'm happy that you've ruled out all the other possibilities, and I am now convinced myself.

    There really is some very gullible people out there. No doubt Joe Coleman will be raking in the dollars after this.

    Whenever you get a large gathering of stupid, gullible people, there will always be alot of them who will believe stupid gullible things. It really is frightening though, that in today's modern society, some people are so completly mentally deluded as to take the absolutly absurd tripe "predictions" of a "psychic" as fact. That Coleman is nothing more than a complete conman, a pathetic, dire fraud (like ALL "psychics").

    I don't think it's fair to call these people stupid. I don't think it's fair to call any person stupid, we all have more or less the same brain it's just their's were programmed to believe what the church tells them. They have allot invested in that lie and are using their amassing brains to create all kinds of things to make that lie seem plausible. We're talking about people who have been hoodwinked over the course of their entire lives from early childhood and believing that lie is easier than not believing it and being shunned by all their friends and peers. Poor unfortunate things, I feel sorry for them.

    Likewise.

    You do realize that there is the same amount of evidence that it was actually Leprechauns that you seen at Knock and not some middle aged Arab women from what is now Israel!

    You are not a pure sceptic, a true sceptic or a sceptic of any description because if you were, you wouldn't have described yourself as narrowminded which is the old chestnut that believers in nonsense describe sceptics as being.
