www.newpolandexpress.pl/npe_news_story-1271-miracle_claimed_after_wafer_%E2%80%98turns_into%E2%80%99_human_heart.php

Remember awhile back their was a story about some church in Poland were the communion wafer became a piece of a human heart? Remember how "doctors could not explain it" and "thousands of people came to see it"? I'm sure you do, because chances are you knew someone in real life or the internet who wouldn't shut up about how this was obvious proof of the divine that couldn't possibly be faked.
Well I've come up with a fun game. Remember every single person you know who instantly believed that miracle, and send them this:

news.aol.com/article/russian-muslims-flock-to-see-miracle/732754?icid=main
I think you'll be amazed at the distinctly different tone of their responses and their sudden surge in skepticism.

Looks like a clear case of dermatographism to me. Now I wouldn't be surprised if the parents actually thought it was a miracle, like if one of them casually "wrote" a verse with their finger and then it popped up. But yeah.

I luckily did not know anyone who bought the whole human heart miracle thing. Or at least, I didn't hear anyone I know express that they thought it was legit.

Yes, I am Jesus, how did you know?

Barely relevant: One day, at school, we were in the computer lab, & my friend's computer wasn't working. She went, "Jesus Christ!" & long story short, I laid hands on the computer, & the second I went "you are healed now," it started working.

I demand a TL;DR book be written about my life & garner millions of followers, only to be highjacked by the guy I named the Pope of my new religion, because he's a douchetard!
