Virgin On A Grape
Ms. Ginn said many people have been energized by the image, but some have questioned its authenticity. Ms. Ginn said she has not altered the image.
“I can Photoshop a zit off someone’s face,” she said. “I can’t Photoshop the Virgin Mary onto a grape.”

I bet she could.
Yes, but can she Photoshop a zit onto the Virgin Mary’s grape face?
Can she Photoshop cognitive dissonance on to an ordinary random event?
We had a spell about 20 years ago, where people were seeing the statues in grottos that are dotted around the country, move. They swore by it. The statues moved. So people came, flocked indeed, around these grottos, and sat, and stared. Sang hymns. Said novenas. For days. Weeks. It was all anybody could talk about. The moving statues.
I saw a the Virgin on the dashboard of the car that parks next to me. Small and plastic, arms open wide. Facing the interior. True story!
