You wrote, “Even the Apostles asked for a sign.” What kind of sign were they looking for? A image of a vintage painting on some food?

Consider the words of Jesus:

“An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah” (Matthew 12:39, 16:4).

“Why does this generation ask for a miraculous sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to it” (Mark 8:12).

Did the Apostles really ask to see am image in a piece of bread? They would be horrified by this ...

I already state quite clearly my opinion on such “signs” and merely expressed a sympathy for people who are so desperate that they would see one or even manufacture one.

As usual, the point is missed in the haste to ridicule or debase rather than debate.
