/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

If true, this would be big

doesn't quite look like just the camera exposure being switched either

So it's confirmed - Africa is future of Church

>>539351

the reaction of people seems genuine to me

>>539359

No :DDDD

>>539361

Fine by me

>mfw no cute African convert gf

Generally we have have issues with the Immaculate heart being overly emotional and the apparition affirming some Catholic doctrine so most say it's prelest. You have a few on the sidelines interpret the consecration of Russia as the godless commies caving to Ordodoxy after trying to eradicate it, seeing Fatima as a genuine miracle (just one that's been frequently misinterpreted for political reasons). That's uncommon though.

So we usually gall id brelesd :DDD

all i see is a bunch of niggers staring at the sun though

>>539399

just the fact that they can actually stare at the sun without getting blinded is something

however >>>/pol/

>>539396

*we will be

Sry

>rainy weather

>many people from across the country at the same time report a rainbow appearing in the sky

I mean seriously? I'm pretty sure that's normal.

>>539509

I can't see anything in that video, but imagine being part of the crowd. It must have been incredible.

>>539673

In many places across the country? At the same time? Just as the final prayers are finished?

>>539678

It certainly could be a miracle! I don't doubt miracles happen all the time. This event in particular doesn't sound very amazing though. It sounds like it rained in parts of the country and people saw a rainbow (multiple rainbows?) afterwards.

Not to be a skeptic but shouldn't the entire area be pitch black for the moments the sun goes out?

>God favors Nubian MEN (Africa) over white boiz (europe)

How can whites even compete?

>>539701

I thought the same thing. I think the flicker is caused from the camera's aperature attempting to adjust to the sun, as well as the white balance. You can see a similar color shift when it pans over the crowd, out of line with the sun.

Moreover, the people aren't being harmed by the sun for a few reasons:

1) the sun is hidden behind clouds

2) there are no pain sensing nerves in your eyes. You can't feel it when the sun cooks your retina

3) they may not actually be looking at the sun.

>2) there are no pain sensing nerves in your eyes. You can't feel it when the sun cooks your retina

What are you talking about? The only thing that is harmful about the sun's light are the UV rays and if you have ever looked at the midday sun then you will feel pain.

There are also different stances on different Marian apparitions - I can tell you that over here in Frogland, a good deal of Orthodox (if not most of them) recognize the apparition of Lourdes as legitimate, even though the Theotokos supposedly said that she is "the Immaculate Conception".

>>539786

I'm pretty sure the other anon is right. You don't actually feel your eyes being burned when you stare at the sun … it's just uncomfortable to stare at bright light – not like actual pain.

>>539381

>Just curious, what is the Orthobro position on the Fatima apparitiorkwxmns and related miracles?

Marian apparitions have never been the East's thing, regardless of age, so we are mostly silent on the issue.

oh right, I forgot that the September 23rd-er crowd had to have something else to look forward to, something to get them out of bed in the morning for

this board is like cult-central

Why does Mary do miracles using things that can easily be mistaken for natural visual phenomena instead of like I dunno turning the sun into a huge red cross or something undeniably of another world, it doesn’t have to be so unsubtle, just something that can’t be mistaken for visual distortions caused by weather or the easily induced failure of the human senses. I mean just something that makes me feel like I’m not falling for my feeble, sinful trait of wilful self-delusion, of fleeing from Truth, when I believe in it.

free will

>staring at the sun

nice way to let demons into your body

>>539818

You have no idea what that means. Please think before posting, and kindly lurk more.

>>539855

doesnt exist, man is dead in sin

>>539855

>deprive humanity of knowledge of God

>deprive humanity of knowledge of world htey live in

>free will

we should hide truth from each other and become deluded for free will…

>>539338

Surely we would see changes in the shadows on the ground too if the Sun was flickering not the camera.

>>539977

what were the people looking? what was the fuss about? and most of all why the bishop conference is confirming everything?

>>539361

I'm okay with this. God doesn't care what our skin color is.

>>539338

>your city/country will never have huge gatherings of Catholics outside showing their faith.

>>539383

Look for Benin or Yoruba Nigerians.
