Weird News: Jesus and Mary 'Appear' on Google Earth
bubblews ^ | October 24th, 2013 | newsguy

Posted on 10/28/2013 2:10:46 PM PDT by Alex Murphy

An amazing image, which looks like a shrouded Jesus Christ shadowed by a prayerful Mother Mary, has been found on Google Earth.

The startling image, found at the coordinates listed below, was snapped by Google as its imaging vehicle drove along the A5 highway near Walensee, Switzerland.

The dramatic, mountainous landscape is enhanced by a steel-grey, storm cloud laden sky. Looming from the cloudscape appear two images, one black, the other a mix of white and pink, which bear an uncanny similarity to figures depicted in religious paintings for centuries.

The smaller figure appears to be cloaked in a flowing gown, hands held in prayer and head bowed.

The other spectre is shrouded in black but seemingly looking forward.

The ghostly figures do bear a resemblance to how classic depictions of Mother Mary and Jesus Christ have been imagined and drawn.

Is it just a coincidence? Or is something else going on here?

True believers don't need to be convinced, while others will say it's just a glitch in the imaging software.

Either way, it's one of the spookiest, or most awe-inspiring results ever found on Google Earth.

Here are the coordinates:

Obviously, Jesus is using obsolete technology. Like Obamacare.

Some millennia back, they might have taken that to be Zeus and Hera or something.

A little further down the road they snapped this shot.

Why is the picture chopped (see line on the road).

Well, one thing’s for sure. Google didn’t do it on purpose.

You’re right, it is chopped. I thought it might just be where they took up painting the line at two different times, but the guardrails look chopped, too, although not so obviously.

If I were driving the Googlemobile on that narrow, winding mountain road, I might’ve been concerned ....

"Why is the picture chopped (see line on the road)."

The guy painting the line on the road was startled whe he saw Jesus and Mary staring down at him causing him to temporarily interrupt his painting of the line.

Yeah, just someone foolin’ around. That being said I truly am on Google maps, along with my dogs. So funny. I looked up our former address, to show someone the house we lived in, and there we be... -lol-

You should read up on some of the available holographic technology. It was probably used for this.

The guy building the guardrail was startled too.

They don’t update too often. The “street view” of my complex shows my car parked that I got rid of about seven years ago.
