encouraging ex-Christians
News of interest to former Christians
"I flipped the pancake, looked down and then called for my finance. I get chills when I think about it." -- Amy Clark, pancake cookAmy Clark of Conneaut, Ohio, can whip up one heavenly breakfast.
On Sunday morning, Clark was at her griddle preparing a batch of pancakes when one of the tasty concoctions caught her eye. She stared at the pancake -- and it stared back.
As the pancake cooked, an image began taking shape. The outline of a man popped forth -- a man with a dark beard. "Everyone I show it to thinks it's the face of Jesus," Clark said.
Clark, 25, was shocked to see a religious figure in her breakfast food.
"I flipped the pancake, looked down and then called for my fiancé," she said. "I get chills when I think about it."
Photos taken of the pious pancake were circulated among friends and co-workers for their opinions. Nearly everyone agrees with Clark's assessment.
"99.9 percent of them think it looks like Jesus," Clark said.
Clark describes herself as spiritual but no religious zealot.
"I go to church once in awhile," Clark said. "But I believe in God and pray to God."
The image appeared at a special time in Clark's life, she said.
"There's a lot of things I've been praying for," she said. "My fiancé and I are pregnant after trying for a long time. We're going to be married next month."
The happy couple are interpreting the visage as encouraging sign, Clark said with a chuckle.
Lots of folks feel good after seeing the image, Clark said.
"People think it's a blessing," she said. "They get happy."

I guess the bible forgot to mention that Mary was a boozer.
Stupid bitch. Here I am, a poor college student in need of money, and she wants to taunt me by appearing on something I can't put on Ebay. What the fuck?
Pareidolia is fun.
...unless it isn't really the fiancé's baby after all...hmmm...
I didn't think men could do that. It's a miracle! Praise Jebus!
/sarcasm
Jesus is saying you should sacrifice your first born on a mountain top.
Of COURSE!! LOL
I love when this kind of stuff makes the news. If crying Mary statues and Jesus Pancakes are the best miracles that God can muster up these days then I say Armegeddon is our for the taking.
As just rick notices, it seems that there is something like a duck to the right [from our view] of Jebus, and Jebus is looking at it.
What is this duck doing there? Keeping Jebus company?
It could be anyone with a beard, why Jesus?
Come to think of it, that looks a bit like me.
Hey Jesus, quit my hogging my 15 minutes!
Now, anyone else here understand why the US population continues to slide in educational rankings of first world countries?
Second, darn, now I feel like eating pancakes--not good for my diet! It's early enough to drive to McD for a happy meal, I think.
Start looking for a face of "The Virgin" or "Jesus," in your food, or a stain, somewhere around your house.
Make up a story about how you were praying for a miracle, and suddenly saw a face in some mundane item around your house, and your miracle came true.
The miracle can be anything from thinking you had cancer and found out that you didn't, or a long lost relative phoned you right after you saw the face.
I'm sure burn marks on food and stains on windows could be easily produced with a little imagination.
If your life is so devoid of meaning that you consider something like this, you may be better advised to get out of the "single wide," get yourself over to the local junior college, and take a course in something, anything, except Christian Apologetics.

They need Jesus to appear inside their syrup bottle quickly to counter this pancake devil.
I think it just looks like a pancake
Look closely and think about it.
Finally, I see the duck!
Absoluty riduculous!
