Jesus Appears... or Does
He?
The Story
While rummaging through some dusty old attic, a nameless person comes across this photo in which one can clearly see the image of Jesus floating between a distant relative, long dead. The nameless person takes this as a sign that Jesus is indeed real and that her/his long-dead relatives are living in heaven with the Messiah. It also probably renews the nameless person's faith in Jesus and leads to a new and wonderful spiritual life.
Analysis
What you are looking at is not photoshopped nor has it been manipulated in any way. Rather, it is one of the more astonishing photo illusions I have ever come across. What appears to be a bearded man - perhaps the face of Jesus - is a real time and very accidental arrangement. If you take a look at "Jesus'" eye, you will see that it is actually the head of a child in the man's lap. The nose is the child's left hand and that the hair is actually a bush in the background.
Conclusion
Could this be the face of Jesus or perhaps the appearance of another spirit or is it just an amazing convergent of separate elements to form a nearly perfect illusion? I'm not about to open that can of worms as miracles or coincidences are best left up to the eyes of the believer or unbeliever. Personally, I think it's an amazing coincidence brought on by subject placement and the age of the photo, but the real conclusion.... That, dear friends, is a judgment you must make for yourself.
