Would be interesting if the actual image were posted. Also a lot more believable, since the technology to “fake” such an image was unavailable at the time. Sounds like it wouldn’t be easy today.

Jose Aste Tonsmann said the tiny images in the eyes include an entire Aztec family and are a sign from the Mother of God about the importance of life and the family at a time when both are under attack worldwide.

Wouldn't it be a sign at the time when the apparition occurred and the image was presented?

Not that God couldn't look ahead and say, "Someday, people are going to be so messed up that they're going to need a direct supernatural sign to help them recognize the value of natural family formation," and set it up centuries in advance.

Could there be anyone who would learn of this analysis and say, "Wow, it never occurred to me that families of children, parents, and grandparents would be something God considered positive! This changes everything!"?

A Peruvian expert who has been studying the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico for 34 years,

34 years spent on something with all the informational significance of a "picture" of Jesus on a piece of toast?

Better picture of Her eyes here:

1. Juan Diego unfolding his tilma & wearing a native hat of the period

2. Bishop Zumarraga, staring at the tilma

3. An Aztec servant of the bishop sitting in the style of an Indian

4. A Spaniard of the bishop’s staff

5. A Spaniard who learned the indigenoous language & served as the bishop’s translator

6. A black African female servant girl — documentary evidence shows in fact, that the bishop did have an African female servant.

7. Seven members of an indigenous family — a mother carrying a baby on her back, a father, a grandmother and grandfather, and two young children.

With billions of people being murdered, starved, aborted and corrupted as a result of hate, crime, tyranny, oppression, abortion and liberalism, I find it hard to believe that God would ignore those things and spend his time burning an image of Jesus into a tortilla.

Seems like apophenia to me. Plus, the “enhanced”, retouched images are worthless as evidence. The JFK conspiracists do the same kinds of thing and find “images” of shooters on the grassy knoll.
