Wow- that was quick.... interesting that this occurred on Ash Wednesday. I definitely see it, but I also see a stain. I do not doubt that the Blessed Virgin Mary comes to us. We see it way too often to dismiss it. Mary is a very powerful figure, and I am sure she gives comfort to those who feel they need it. I find it somewhat interesting that she found a baking sheet this time. They need to let Guadeloupe keep it after the faithful have had their share. Sometimes it is the small things that can bring comfort to people in these sad and uncertain times. God bless us, everyone.

i just saw the movie "off the map" and there was a kind of satirical event that was illustrated when the face of jesus was seen on a tortilla. It was just burnt butter one of the actors said. although as humorous as these visions are i would guess the miricle of the tortilla wrap to be more likely. a baking sheet? man we humans are really desperate for something more

you got to admit, it's just a little wierd,
I think it would be more productive to search for inspiration in prayer.
but, to each their own, whatever works, I guess.

Maybe the Virgin Mary can get us out of Iraq.
I agree with HMAC. Haven't they ever heard of SOS?
Soft scrub or Comet work well too.
I saw Jesus at the mall the other day.

And Elvis is not dead. He's renting a room from me right next to the hen house. Give me a break. I see a stain. If it comforts others to say it's the Virgin Mary, by all means, let us erect a temple to the sacred cookie sheet.

If they decide to make a movie about this spectacular event, the Virgin Mary will have to be played by Keanu Reaves.

DEEPEST APOLOGIES! My girlfriend down in Houston lost 150 pounds on a slim-fast diet and left me. Said I didn't deserve a svelt 300 pounder and she intended to lose a couple more pounds too. I got drunk and wandered over to the darkened elementary school. I scraped my bum on the screen sneaking into the cafeteria so to ease the pain I dropped my drawers and sat on the nearest cold object, which happened to be a metal baking sheet. Later, I pitched the empty bottle of Jack Daniels into the trash and departed as I had come.

I am quite certain that the Almighty God put the image of the Blessed Virgin on that cookie sheet as a way of telling us that He loves us, and He will rescue us from this world very soon. Either that, or He wants us to avoid trans-fats. Amen.

The human brain is wired to see faces in images,,,, I'd think if the Virgin would want to be seen it wouldn't be done in such a simple fashion, on the other hand folks have the right to see what they want if it gives them solice I suppose.

Shouldn't we see some miracle besides the "image" before we pray to a baking pan? Like...will cookies baked on this pan cure cancer?

Christ, not this f(BLEEP)ckin' virgin Mary bullsh(BLEEP)t again. If I took a sh(BLEEP)t I could probably find her image in that too. And besides, she was f(BLEEP)cked, so she ain't no godd(BLEEP)mned virgin! She was married to Joseph and had God's kid? That means Jesus H. Christ is nothing but a common b(BLEEP)stard!
