I just watched a story about a tree in Oak Cliff that is supposed to have the Virgin Mary in it. Ok, the tree does have a shape created by time that does resemble the shape of a women. But honestly, how do you get the Virgin Mary from that? People have spent the last 3 months going to this tree and praying. The people who’s yard it is in are saying that they want their lives back now and so they are selling it.

My first problem with this is that if Mary were going to make an appearance, I seriously doubt it would be as a sketchy figure in a tree in Oak Cliff. Or in a grill cheese sandwhich for that matter!

Second problem is, if you truly belive that is her image and that the tree is holy, why would you sell it on ebay? The couple said they want to sell it because they want to donate the money to charity. How much of the money you ask? Only 10%.

Call me jaded but it seems to me that they discovered this shape in the tree, spread the word until it got popular and are now trying to profit off it. I guess I missed that lesson in CCD!
