Muslim finds Jesus in church of all places



Okay--I found the Jesus. Sometimes, I squint at the picture, but never see the Jesus. This time--I saw it! I did! But for the original finder:

The 24-year-old, from Tunisia, declared: “I couldn’t believe it. This is something natural on the wall. Nobody has made it.

“This really looks like the face of Jesus. I’m a Muslim but I read lots of books and that is Jesus.”

The ‘face’ is on the garden wall of tenements which lie in the shadow of the church.


I read my fair share of books too. This is definitely a bearded guy of Jesus-like proportions. Hair on top--beard on bottom, eye-like things symemetrically situated.

I have a theory about the prepoderance of Jesus & Mary sightings occuring naturally on walls, foodstuffs, the occasional unwashed cookware, etc. It isn't so much that the various stains, burn-marks, moss and mold formations, etc., necessarily contrive themselves to resemble 1st century AD middle eastern persons, as it's more like, because men wore beards and long hair, and male and female people alike wore loose-fitting robes, the people tended to look more like naturally occurring stains, burn-marks, etc. One hardly ever sees, for example, a 1980-era David Bowie naturally occurring anywhere on a cave wall or something similar. On a Danish, for example. But then he was clean-shaven and generally wore form-fitting clothes. And yet, I'm sure any one of us has looked at a pastry and seen David Crosby.
