Image of the Virgin Mary Appears on Tree in West New York

WEST NEW YORK, N.J. "People are flocking to a tree in northern New Jersey where some say they see the image of the Virgin Mary. Makeshift shrines have sprung up by the tree.
People have been praying, crying and leaving flowers and candles as they look at the small opening where the bark was stripped away.
A fence and other barricades also have been set up around the tree, which is in a sidewalk along a commercial strip." (AP News)

This also is the mentality of Christian faith represented by some of the people who come to DC to argue for the truth of the Bible. (If believers can see the Virgin Mary in a damaged tree trunk, it sure didn’t take as much imagination to claim Jesus arose from the dead!)
