RE: Statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary opens her eyes!!
That comment is what motivated me to find that video of Criss Angel and post it. [Image: freak1.gif]
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

this is further proof the virgin mother is alive and watching over us.

the kid who filmed this event is very sick and cannot walk.

How the hell would you know it is genuine? How can you be sure especially since the person or persons posting/filming it likely has/have an agenda (to prove his/their faith)? Effects like these are easy to create.

The video proves nothing.

This video is just as much proof for the existence of god as The Night Of The Living Dead is for the existence of brain-eating zombies.

Frankly, then, I wish it were so- I've been hoping for a zombie apocalypse (assuming I have access to the guns and archery store down the way) since I saw Shaun of the Dead.

No it doesn't ... as someone else said it no more proves the Virgin Mary is real than than "The Living Dead" movie proves that flesh eating zombies are real. Movies can be faked, photos can be faked and if you can't understand that simple concept I genuinely pity you (though it is probably more like contempt).

This video does not prove a thing. Don't forget the rules!

"Images or video recordings can no longer hold scientific evidence for the supernatural due to large possibilities of tampering"

Evidence has to come from other than image or video. Evidence must be in detectable, study-able material in which it can be assest and that if such evidence is found to be proof of your claims, your claims would ultimately become theory instead of hypothesis.
I think this is called the 3 steps. First is hypothesis, second is theory and third is scientific fact.

But the thing is, your claims have no support. All you can show is tampered recordings. I've actually watched this documentary where this professional editor explained how video tampering is so easily done. He mentioned how video tampering is used to influence statues to encourage people to believe in superstition. This video proves it. It's just a cheap attempt really. Only the foolish could fall for it.

My advice Psalm, is that you should try using reason before wishful thinking.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

That can't be right because the theories are the highest form of scientific explanation.
