Which Warraq video do you recommend? I just looked at some and all I’m seeing is bright light. It just isn’t that clear that it is Mary. What if it is not Mary and there is some demon making the light? (Although maybe a demon would not want to be that close to a church; I don’t know.)

I would like it to be Mary. I think the Coptic Christians could use the encouragement. But I’m not amazed by the videos that I pulled up.

Most, if not all, of these videos are cell phone videos. The crowd reaction is very telling. Obviously, the people viewing this believed that something miraculous was happening. I believe that the light moved about the roof of the church. I don't know how this kind of bright light could be created by ordinary means.

Obviously, we're all free to draw our own conclusions.

I believe that a bishop of the Coptic Orthodox Church approved the apparition.

Skeptics at Wikipedia claim that the effect was created by lighting the church towers. But I can't imagine a crowd of this size gathering for illuminated church towers.
