When the Homily is about Immunology

The Face of St. Paul on this pot roast...

...assures me that I'm going UP TO HEAVEN...

Pilgrims flock to see 'Buddha boy' said to have fasted six months And we like to think that capitalism and commercialization of religion was a distinctly western value? I think this shows that it is a distinctly HUMAN value. Surrounded by a wasteland of human consumption, the miraculous 'Buddha boy' does not eat, does not use the bathroom, presumably does not play with a brand new XBOX 360.

How much LESS odd is the Virgin Mary appearing in water stains under a freeway? Were there vendors at that event? If not, perhaps it's a missed opportunity that our Buddhist friends can teach us something about.
