Yeah, nothing smug about an agnostic

I'm a Christian, and the Mary sightings are ludicrous to me. The more of them we have, the more marginalized real miracles become. I don't see God playing Where's Waldo with the same hands-folded image of Mary over and over again. Even if some of these images are supernatural in origin, that doesn't make them divine. If we're going the mystic route, I see just as much possibility that Satan uses the images to mislead as I do that God uses them to ..... whatever they're supposed to do.
