Im not sure if this has been already brought to your attention, sorry if it has. im also not sure if this belongs in the hoax forum. basically im not sure of alot of things.
one thing i am sure of now is that the virgin mary does exist and she has been hiding in the stump of a tree in county limerick, Ireland, which is why we havent seen her in a while.
what happened was that a few lads cutting down a tree in a church yard in a small ‘dont bother going there’ village of Rathkeale when one of the lads exclaimed that he could see the virgin mary staring back at him. this lead to all sort of questions such as how have we gone astray that the virgin mary would appear to us now? and how did anyone from limerick accuratly identify a virgin?

on my way past last week i popped in for a visit to see about 20 people gathered around it, half were blessing themselves, half were squinting to see it. personally i think it looks a bit like happy noodle boy from johnny the homicidal maniac. also in the attached pic i took note the appropriate gify of a squeeky cow
