The Virgin Mary is a blue eyed teenage girl that appears taller than she is because she stands on a cloud.

That is according to a new book that has carried out exclusive interviews with the the visionaries of Medjugorje, who first saw her 30 years ago this year when they were schoolchildren....

....In the new book "Medjugorje - 30 years of a phenomenon" authors Marijan Sivric and Ivo Scepanovic have spoken to the schoolchildren - now adults - who said they are surprised that people so often ask "what does she look like"....the Lady is dressed in a grey gown and a white veil covering her black hair, adding: "She has a crown of golden stars, blue eyes, rosy cheeks, and she floats on a silver cloud. She never stands on the ground." The visionaries counted 12 stars above her head, and said she looked to be around 18 years old - but not more than 20.

Tall woman for her time. That was the average height for males.

I would have thought she’d have brown eyes and olive skin, being a Jewish girl from the Middle East.

Maybe. Who knows.

We have posters on FR who claim to speak for God.

Other posters who have created their own pantheon of demon-aliens based on two words in Apocalypse.

Others post their dreams as visions despite Proverbs warning on dreams.

As I said, who knows for sure.

BTW, private revelation is just that, private revelation. No one is bound to it or has to believe it.

The Song of Bernadette is a great movie, and the visions at Lourdes were approved by the Church. Not so at Medjugorje ... so it doesn't matter at this time what she looked like or how tall she was through the eyes of the "supposed" visionaries in Yugoslavia, etc.

Question..Question.. ( hand waving to the teacher..)

If Mary was “assumed “ into heaven, wouldn’t her body look like it did when she was assumed??? Not a teen age girl???

Virgin Mary is 165 centimetres tall

That's Madonna, not *the* Madonna.

A case of mistaken identity.

What year is that from? Recent pics of Madonna L. Ciccone show her as a bit stringy. Looking her age, in other words.

Hmmm, Pope Benedict blessed a statue?

Your search for On June 4, 2008, Pope Benedict XVI blessing a statue of Our Lady of Meugorje in Saint Peter’s Square, Vatican City did not match with any Web results.

Please give source. Thanks

I would have thought so too. Where do they the blue eyes from?
