When you though Virgin Mary Toast was all the weirdos had...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I wonder if anyone ever queried exactly how they know these things 'look like' Christ or 'resemble' the Virgin Mary, when as far as I am aware there are no photographs or contemporary images of said individuals?

That oyster shell only vaguely looks like a human face. How they can claim that it looks like a specific person who supposedly lived 2000 years ago I have no idea.

Pathetic doesn't even begin to describe it.

From Lucien's link:
Tinky Winky, the purse-toting purple Teletubbie, was in 1999 declared a homosexual role model by Reverend Jerry Falwell.

Matteo Brandi, 38, may hope to repeat the success of a Florida woman who sold a piece of toast said to bear an image of the Virgin Mary for $28,000.
OMFG. Honestly, I just can't see why someone could pay that kind of money for a piece of toast and not realise that if they spent this money on millions of toasts for some poor children for example, they'd be a much better Christian. It's not amusing at all, as for me.

You know, I hadn't thought of it like that. Very good point.

Pperhaps someone with enough money to throw away like that should consider Mark 10:25 if they think of themselves as a Christian. :|

The toast was won by a casino, so its goal is to rake money in, not distribute it out charitably. Granted, I would not be too surprised if a few Christians with too much money on hand placed bids, but the winner probably was not a Christian casino.

Mark's biblical verse may make more sense if camel is translated as rope. I am no Aramaic translator, though.

:eek: Well, there you go. I had been told that the "eye of a needle" was an idiom for the little-door-in-a-big-door that you would have had in the doors in city walls back then. A door big enough to get people through, and you would only open the big one if carts, etc. were coming through. And obviously it's a bit tricky getting a camel through a people-sized door.

odd. i've always assumed it was just an example of a very small thing and a very big thing, purely to illustrate the point that "it aint ever gonna happen". never thought for a second it had (or needed) any actual practical meaning...

What I don't get is:

They're making money from cashing in on their messiah / their messiah's mam.

That isn't very Christian.
