Image: Virgin Mary, Jesus Spotted On A Tree In Iowa
Jesus and his Mom Mary have been seen on toast and on other edibles, but now they have been spotted on a tree in Polk City, Iowa, which has now become a tourist attraction.
KCTV reports that there are some people who say they see the Virgin Mary growing right out of the tree’s trunk.
You know how she is.
The shape is about six-feet-high and people have been leaving flowers there in honor of Mary who is totally not there.
However, there are others who say they don’t see the Virgin Mary – but they do see Jesus.
But wait! There’s another group of people who believe the image actually resembles Mary holding baby Jesus.
It’s not clear when people started noticing the tree or who owns the land it stands on. And the tree totally does not look like someone carved a figure out of it (wink wink).
God works in mysterious ways but He’s just not that obvious. Who knew that He’s a tree hugger? Not me.

The obvious explanation is that someone carved it, but naturally, the gullible believers jump to the conclusion that the source is divine. How desperate to have something to believe in are you that you pick this?

It’s a sign from our Lord John Cleese that climate denier Iowa Senator-elect Joni Ernst is in league with Beelzebub!
Carla Akins November 16th, 2014 at 13:49
That would be hilarious if Ernst wasn’t really in league with Beelzebub.

Looks more like Osama Bin Laden. I prefer the image of the true God – the Flying Spaghetti Monster (Sauce be upon him) – who is immortalized in this miraculous revelation:

I wouldn’t say it has been carved, more like rot from damage when a branch broke off. Typical of the hyper religious to find icons and idols in everything they look at, even in a diseased tree trunk. Deluded, misguided and ill informed cretins.

An image of Larry King appeared on my maple tree. The next day it morphed into Eric Estrada.

You’ve been hanging out by the meat smoker too long; you’re starting to see Maple CHiPS…

I looked closely. Are you sure that’s not Katherine Heigl? She’s making a return from the dead, too.
