I actually posted one earlier in the thread.

Which brings me to this photograph taken at the Sam Houston Coliseum in Houston, Texas On the night of January 24, 1950.
Original Photograph



This photograph was examined by George J. Lacy, (who worked for the FBI as Investigator of Questioned Documents, and would become the president of The American Society of
Questioned Document Examiners in 1956) subjected the negative to every scientific test available.

Photocopy of George J. Lacey's official report and conclusion concerning the tests run on the photograph.



His conclusion,


he also made this statement at a news conference, “To my knowledge, this is the first time in all the world’s history that a supernatural being has been photographed and scientifically vindicated.”

You're fucking joking. You think a photo that someone claims shows God is a scientific study? You can't be serious.
In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty.

Argument from authority? Seriously? This is your go-to example?

Look, you asked for a scientific study and I gave you one.

Quote:The American Society of Questioned Document Examiners is the world's oldest society dedicated to the forensic science of questioned document examination with 144 members worldwide. The current president is James A. Green. The society publishes the Journal of the American Society of Questioned Document Examiners twice a year.

Looks like nothing more than a reflection. For all we know, your supposed expert is/was a Christian with an ax to grind. His "opinion" is hardly proof.

Big whoop.

That's all you straw-grabbers ever have. Akin to Jeebus on a tortilla.

Nada.

You are missing the point.

The organization that you're pointing to has 144 fucking members? I can't take you seriously man. It's like pointing to some Bigfoot fanclub that puts out a 'journal' every year and saying "Look they say bigfoot exists, there's your evidence". I'm really having a hard time not just sitting back and laughing at this point.
