Were you there?
There are some things that are false on their face; i.e. crying and/or bleeding statutes, crosses in toilet windows, images of Mary in scrambled eggs, UFO’s, Bigfoot, etc. There is no need to be there, one simply uses common sense.
Were you?
No, but more than likely, neither were you.
I know people who hold the visions at Fatima above Scripture, and that you HAVE to believe them in order to the saved. Which is, from what I have read, explicitly NOT what the Vatican or any Roman Catholic hierarch has said. It is at best, private revelation, not public.
70,000 witnesses can be wrong. ;-)
