9:13. Personal note. When I was a little kid, my mother told me not to stare into the sun. So once, when I was six, I did. The doctors didn’t know if my eyes would ever heal. I was terrified, alone in that darkness. Slowly, daylight crept in through the bandages and I could see. But something else had changed inside me. That day I had my first headache. A GALWAY eye surgeon has described as “unprecedented” the rise in the number of cases of an eye condition which he says can be directly attributed to people staring at the sun during recent events at the Knock shrine. Dr Eamonn O’Donoghue, a consultant ophthalmologist surgeon in University Hospital Galway, says the hospital would usually see one case of solar retinopathy “at most” per year. However, this year there have... Similar posts

Would you believe this man? This is one of the two men who claim to have had visions of the Virgin Mary. Keith Henderson - is pictured below. I know what I’d think if this man told me he was seeing things. He probably needs medical help. Picture taken from http://www.irishtimes.com/indepth/slideshows/knock-apparition-virgin-mary/ where you can see more of the activity at knock on 31st October 2009. Nothing happened apart from a few thousand crazy people running around and looking at the sun.

It was no miracle - just my eyes being nearly blinded by looking at the bloody sun. Read an eye wittness report from Knock here... Similar posts

Another non event today at Knock apparently. Expecting an apparition promised by a self proclaimed “visionary” - thousands of people turned up in Knock - many in camper vans and transit vans . According to reports on the local radio station today - the main basilica was full with people and the doors were closed to prevent overcrowding. Joe Coleman and a couple of “followers” started off praying the Rosary around 2.30. At around 3.20 the reporter said he heard aloud noise (like thunder) - and everyone ran outside - some climbing over seats to get out. He said it was dangerous behaviour and it was lucky no one was hurt. Joe Coleman stayed inside while the people wer looking at the sun (again). The reporter said there were some “strange activities ” in... Similar posts

On the 11th of October in Knock 5,000 people gathered  in the hope of seeing an apparition of Our Lady, following the prediction by Dubliner Joe Coleman.Coleman claims to be a...visionary of our Blessed Mother and a spiritual healer under the energy of the Holy Spiritbecause he had some near death experience back in the 80's.  I won't stand on the fence here.. he is a moron.  But what annoys me is that Ireland still has a generation of people who are happy to believe a moron.. if the said moron is spouting religious pants.5000 people..think about that .. 5000 people went to Knock on 11th of October with the expectation that the ghost of woman that died in Galilee over 2000 years ago is about to arrive to talk to them.  Nothing happened,  of course nothing...
