Face of Jesus Christ appears in three-cheese pizza (Aus)

ALL hail Lord Cheesus - the holy apparition that appeared in a pizza.

In a purported "miracle'', the face of Jesus Christ has appeared on a three-cheese pizza made at Posh Pizza in New Farm, Brisbane.

And the image can be yours to enjoy.

The shop, in the city's Fortitude Valley, has put the slice on eBay, and as of this morning bidding was up to $65.

All proceeds raised will go to a charity to be decided once the pizza is auctioned.

Posh Pizza's Maree Phelan said her pizza oven was seemingly blessed with the presence of Jesus Christ, who chose a three cheese pizza as his medium.

Phelan isn't convinced it's the son of God, but she's certain it got there on its own.

"I can definitely say this isn't a fake,'' she said.

"The three-cheese pizza always comes out with very different colours.''

It's already proven a good luck charm.

"After discovering it, the owner of the store parked in a loading zone and didn't get a parking ticket,'' they wrote on eBay.

There is debate as to whether the face resembles Jesus Christ or other well-known bearded men, with Kings of Leon lead singer Caleb Followill a favoured candidate, with actor Viggo Mortensen and a long-haired Christian Bale popular choices.

''It's open to interpretation as many of these crazy, out there things are,'' Phelan said.

Australian Catholic University associate professor and director of the Institute for Catholic Identity and Mission, Patrick McArdle, said the pizza was "almost definitely not a miracle'' and would be hard to prove.

''There are a lot of misunderstandings in the making of saints and miracles,'' he said.

He said generally only "medical miracles'', such as healings, were accepted by the Catholic Church because those incidents could be tested using scientific means.

I think he said “Blessed are the cheese makers”.

As long as they don’t see the face of Jesus or the Virgin Mary in Helen Thomas’ wrinkles.

If that ever happens, we’ll know the apocoalypse is upon us.

Behold, there will be signs I shall give unto you, so that you might prepare for my coming.

Thou shalt see my visage in cheese toasted on a flat bread, and again on crackers, peeling paint, deserts, mold, seaweed, cereal and broken pieces of pottery.

Verily, verily thou shalt see Mom in Gravy stains, plant fungus and dirty diapers.

In these ways - thou shalt know that I am among you.

Completely staged.

That cheese distribution looks like it was accomplished by a drunk circus monkey having a sneezing fit.

How does anyone know what Mary or Jesus looks like? Some painter's version of what they want them to look like?

On this pizza, I agree with the zig zag comment.

When someone says they've seen Jesus or Mary in or on something, I shudder thinking the story will be on Bill Mahr's show by the weekend. It makes us look like idiots, and frankly, some of us are.

Now this pizza will be on eBay for some idiots to bid on. Remember, Jesus said to eat his flesh and drink his blood. Eat the stupid pizza.

Give a man a pizza, you feed him for a day.
Teach him how to make pizza, you feed him for a lifetime.
