Disproving Odin - An Experiment in arguing with a theist with Theist logic

One question I would ask, in a situation with a crowd like that, is if the people there witnessed this same event?  If only the camera saw it, then that begs the question of why only the camera saw it (similar to if only one person saw it).  It may also open up other possibilities as to the source.
Huggy will correct me if I’m wrong, but I do believe several other people in the crowd said they saw some kind of light, but it was only after the priest explicitly said to them something along the lines of, ‘look at the light!  Look at it!  Do you see it right there hovering over her head?’  I also recall that he was showing a photo of the pillars of fire.  Sounds more to me like amateur crowd hypnosis.

Thanks for the info... I'm not really familiar and haven't really been following the story, just commenting on the ideas.
