Quote: Isn't it funny that all the testimonies gathered in 1960 from people all over the world but didn't know each other, all coincided and said the same thing?
By the way, after the miracle in 1917, it took the Catholic Church 13 years and thousands of pages of testimonials to investigate the matter. If they were out to just scam the world to somehow draw attention or make a profit, they wouldn't have spent so long looking into it. In the end, in 1930, the Catholic Church made an official pronouncement approving of the authenticity of the miracle.
1. And isn't it more amazing that 90% of the globes populous missed said event . That even people who were there say they saw nothing . And that a suspension of celestial mechanics went completely unnoticed. Hell the effects on gravity alone would be catastrophic .
2. As for the scam argument the reason is simple they investigated as to lend credibility to they event . And letting the catholic church investigate a miracle is a bit like letting the mafia investigate a mob hit . As to wiether they investigated or just tried confirming there own bias is very much in question. As for the 13 years the benefit of having a modern miracle would far exceed any short term gain in money or fame the church might get.
