Couple find Jesus in blob of ink on newspaper

A couple from Norwalk, Connecticut, believe they have discovered Jesus Christ in a blob of ink on a page from local newspaper, The Hour. "I didn't see it at first, but as I was reading the paper, I said to my wife, the movie section is blotted out with ink and held it up for her to see," Joseph McCaffrey said. "And she shouted, 'It's Jesus!' "



Eager to share the astounding image, McCaffrey snapped a picture of the May 2 edition and circulated it to his friends to see if they could see what he and his wife, Wendy believe they saw. "Some see the image, some don't, but the overwhelming majority said they could definitely see Jesus," McCaffrey said.

Wendy, who said she and her husband regularly attend Mass at the Church of the Good Shepherd on New Canaan Avenue, aren't overly religious but do possess a spiritual nature. "It's like the ink blot test, everyone sees something different," Wendy said. "Or like looking at a cloud. You can see all sorts of images if you let your mind wander."



Regardless of whether people say they can see Jesus in the ink blob, McCaffrey said he will continue to believe that faith can be found in all sorts of places. "It's definitely interesting," he said. "I'm not going to make a shrine for it, but we do plan on holding onto it. We'll see how much notoriety it gets first."

Obviously, people believe what they want to be true. I see nothing except for an ink blob.

Yup. That's an ink blob alright. Or someone dropped their pizza on the paper. It's hard to tell in a black & white photo.

I see nothing. Perhaps my Master is preventing it from burning my eyes.

Looks like some one wiped their butt and did not flush the paper...
