IT'S FUCKING STONE!

I'll be polite.

Jerry rigged the video to have it appear that way. It's how they shove propaganda down the throats of fake Christians.

I'd expect it to at least be black with smoke.

It's like someone sprayed it with fireplace brick cleaner before they shot the video.
That said, if there was enough oxygen being pulled in by the firestorm, the combustion could, theoretically, be complete enough to be very close to soot free.
But, that wouldn't be a miracle. It would be simple chemistry.
Either way, their take is ridiculous.

The stupid. It's beyond imagination.

"Our home is dedicated to the sacred heart of Jesus and always has been."

Well, Jesus didn't give a shit about your house, but saved the $50, cheesy CONCRETE statue. Gee, thanks God. Don't knock yourself out with the hard stuff.

These people can’t be this stupid. Well maybe…This must be just another thing they’re gonna use to grift.

Jesus didn't give a shit about his own houses, either. The stupid really is mind-boggling.

Apparently the folks at The Propaganda Channel don't know that a lot of Protestants are offended by the Catholics' worship of the Virgin Mary?

If anyone cares

The Roman's saw the female goddess staues and painted over the name with 'Virgin Mary'. This happened with a lot of pagan gods. They just got renamed to saints.

This happened to St Nicholas (i.e. Santa Claus). He was a pagan shaman who would slide into people's homes in the winter with a load of magic mushrooms to be dried over the fireplace.

they were the wrong churches!

.... didn't the fire start from a big bolt of blue lightening flashing out of the heavens ?

This fire stuff is God practicing his skills of red lining and gentrification.
Flexing his realtor muscles if you will.

Statue he had at his front door. It was even in an article in a local paper he showed me online.

So a lion and a Virgin Mary statue survived !

Of a stone pig that survived wildfire

This is deeply stupid

Obviously, we should be worshiping chimneys.

The statue would give me the winner of the Bucs - Commanders game and the Power Ball numbers I'd believe in da murcal.

I guss their neighbors were gaudless heathensl

They would bury a statue of St. Joseph with the head pointed at the house to get a good price on their sale. I kid you not.

I'm Catholic, so bias is not being posted here by me.

But it’s up there.

(EDIT: To be clear, I’m calling them stupid. Not you. )

…being catholic and throwing salt over your shoulder are not the same thing.

Oh yeah, because they’re not real and there’s no such things as miracles.

I’d love to be alive when we leave all this bullshit behind us. But alas…

I figured it would be the famous "Mary or Jesus in a bathtub" but its an aggregate-moulded mix /

... there's a weird, smudgey and slightly angled division between the wreckage of the house and the yard. But that's almost immaterial; the real story is the staggering stupidity of the Pox News premise. What's even worse is how many people actually believe this shit.

My faith says "Of course it didn't burn it is stone". If the statue burn and the home didn't that would be a miracle.

However if it gives them solace at the loss of their house, I am willing to let them have it. It harms no one.

Time will tell. Maybe they can sell the miracle statue on eBay and make enough money to build a new house.

and I will not judge them for something innocuous like this that gives them solace. I especially won’t call them stupid — this impulse seems to extend beyond the religious to agnostics and atheists. I suspect it’s a universal impulse to search for something to hold on to.

... any approbation is reserved for the cynical swine at Pox News for exploiting the homeowners' grief.

:eyeroll:

… if they’re unable to grasp the theme of ‘Green Eggs and Ham’, that the construction principles underlying ‘The Three Little Pigs’ would be a challenge.

It’s not like the metal truck body and brick wall aren’t still intact right by the statue.

Of course it didn't burn.

HALLELUJAH!

Inside Edition had a story last night about some randos filming themselves lowering an American flag off a pole that was, heaven forfend, in danger of burning. "Don't let it touch the ground!", the dude filming yelled at the one pulling it down.

The announcer lady called them heroes. GMAFB.

"The stone Virgin Mary statue in this home's front yard didn't burn!"

"Was it made of coal?"

"No..."

"Then why WOULD it have burned?"

. . . I'd be willing to bet that if the homeowners had the choice they would have chosen their home to survive and the statues to be destroyed.

It's a miracle! God loves atheists!


Fire spares non-flammable material. Will wonders never cease.

Also God: But FUCK our house.

They're pretty close to breaking into regularly scheduled program because some lady toasted an image of Jesus into her morning toast.
