Or the supernatural nature doesn't have anything to do with Mother Mary!
Sorry about your friends. I remember the days when my friend said it was important to just believe. I told her that it was important to believe the truth! Well, she finally came to see.
That is an absolutely gorgeous webpage, and thanks for the link. I'm bookmarking it, so I can take my time going through it. You really did a very nice job - beautiful font! I think I going to enjoy it. :o)
I've always had a good impression of Bishop Peric, too. I also have an impression that God used his miseries to prove him out. The Bishop stood firm. What an example!
I think I saw the Davies book, but didn't read the whole thing.
It is important to try your best to come to the truth of things. I'm glad you are like that.
Thanks for the compliment about the page. It was a labor of love for the truth, if not the absolute truth, the only truth I need, what a credible bishop had to say about it. There are fancier pages out there, to be sure, but that's the way it just came together for me. I was thinking when I checked the link that I ought not to have stolen the coil graphic. That was before I knew you weren't supposed to grab just any graphics you take a fancy to on the net. As it happens, I think I stole that from E. Michael Jones and changed the grey color to gold. A bit of alchemy there. I think he won't mind in this case :-). He took a look at the page and seemed to approve at the time. I don't know if he ended up linking to it like he said he was going to. It doesn't matter, but I would have been a little flattered or honored, take your pick, if he had.
I was going to erase all that above verbiage because who cares what I did, but the symbolism rather struck me of changing the coils to gold is kind of analagous to Medjugorje rosaries turning to gold. Just a few clicks of the mouse in paint shop pro and voila!
