The real miracle would be if you could look at the people of Naples and see their Christianity spilling out into the world. If God has been showing them something remarkable and encouraging time after time over the centuries, I would hope it had left an impression.

I guess I’m trying to say that where there are miracles, there should follow real conversions of heart. I think my mom noticed a real sense of being among faithful, good, local people when she went to Lourdes.

Is this also true in Naples?

I haven’t seen that much faith expressed in Italy when I’ve visited - mostly because I haven’t attended too many religious services. But if you watch early Fellini movies - particularly “Nights of Cabiria” you will see some deeply moving expressions of faith in Rome. Of course, that was long ago.

Why wouldn’t it be true?

Have you read Kings I & II recently - those folks had amble evidence and still didn’t get it right ...
