It’s a Hubble pic.

It does kind of look like a close up of the right "pillar" in the Eagle Nebula.

They do make Christianity look stupid. Not the MSM’s fault, why does the Catholic Church encourage such behavior?

“why does the Catholic Church encourage such behavior?”

Just pathetic. That stupid bagel (or whatever it was) looked like a scorched, inedible piece of pastry. So damned stupid to conjure up anything to do with our Lord.

If someone tried to say it looked like Mohamed or some other non-Christian religious leader, they’d be strung up.

Let's be fair...if someone declared they'd found the image of the Dalai Lama in a tortilla, I think it's safe to say they wouldn't be persecuted by rampaging Buddhists.

Islam seems to be in a category all its own in this regard.

And let's not forget those wacky Irish pilgrims staring at the sun hoping to catch a glimpse of Mary!

But it is hardly an isolated incident!

Nah. Have faith, and keep it in perspective. They try mightily to “make it look stupid” (and the Mary-worshippers don’t help), but they are doomed to fail.

Said Jesus: “Upon this rock I will build My church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”

Tortilla, mmmmmm, sacrilegiously tasty. Sacrilegious or Sacdelicious?

Not too unusual, if it came from the Colonel.
