Pope John Paul II today / Pope John Paul II when he was alive:
Is this Pope John Paul II waving from beyond the grave? Vatican TV director says yes

Posted: 10/16/07 at 12:47pmYou have to admit, the resemblance is striking. And exactly how I pictured JP2 in the afterlife, actually.

Posted: 10/16/07 at 12:53pmDamn. I'd think the hunch would be cured when you went to heaven, but I'm not a theologian.

After the fire had gone out, the fact that his mark appeared in the ashes was seen as proof of the miraculous visitation.

So, because for the SPLIT-SECOND the fire was photographed, and the image is sort of the same, they consider this a sign?!
Now if the fire walked around blessing people and turning water into wine, then I'd have a little more faith.

Posted: 10/16/07 at 1:07pmCould this have anything to do with the blasphemy that opens Legally Blonde?

Posted: 10/16/07 at 1:09pmPhyllis, to take a page from Diva's post; if the flame had been walking in front of the Palace Theatre, then, yes.

I'm sure if I had the time, I could find a picture of Satan somewhere that has the same outline...
I mean, c'mon, at least he would have shown up in something that could have been sold on eBay, like a grilled cheese sandwich or a bathroom window...

Posted: 10/16/07 at 2:48pmIt's from Vatican TV...they show things like this and reruns of THE FLYING NUN and are jumping into the reality TV arena with WHO'S THE NEXT MONSIGNIOR?
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
