The Sydney Morning Herald reported on it's web-site on the 19th of April that a Ms Obdulia Delgado held up traffic after she stopped her car on the on-ramp of the Kennedy Expressway, Chicago because, now get this, she saw a vision of the Holy Virgin Mary on the wall of the on-ramp (pictured above). Now apparently people are flocking to the onramp to get closer to god by laying flowers and offerings infront of the image. It's reached the point where the police have had to put up barricades to prevent people from driving and parking in the area.
Look at the image above, what do you see? Yes, to some I suppose you can see the Virgin Mary. Personally, I see a bottle of beer, ketchup bottle, a chess pawn, hell I'd go as far as saying that it looked rather phalic in nature, the fresco de la dildo. Come on people, it's a stain! It's what happens when water seeps into and out of concrete. The human mind is programmed to see patterns, that's how we recognise faces. Any one looking at that blotch will see what ever they want to. Yes, some people might say it is just a stain, but the question is how did that stain take the shape that it's in? Well, it could be that a rather tall homeless man pees against that wall every morning. Now I'm not against religion or the catholic faith, but this harkens back to the middle ages when every small little church 'discovered' a holy relic. It reached the point where apparently Joseph had two thumbs on one hand since there were two chapels with the relic of his right thumb. If god wanted to show an image to the faithful, he wouldn't show it on the on ramp of the Kennedy Expressway, unless of course God gets some kind of sick pleasure from causing traffic jams....
People, wake up and get a grip, this is reality talking....
