In the mean time, I was born in Portugal, so I don't have to learn it.
The earliest recorded account of the "miracle" was given by a reporter allegedly present at the event who didn't see anything, but got a few reports of people seeing something... A few... out of hundreds who were expecting something.
You'd do well to learn about psychology and how bias works.
Also, Salazar kept this country in the dark ages while the rest of the world was advancing the 20th century. There's a mentality delay of some 40 years thanks to him.
There's also the spectre of "communists eat babies for breakfast" still lurking in this people due to all the propaganda that regime instilled into us. In other countries, atheists ate babies... It's like they all learn their propaganda techniques from each other... And apply it to their perceived enemies.
The highest point of Portuguese history was a few centuries earlier... When slavery was ok. :p
Do you STILL live in Portugal?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
