12/12/12


I like the last triply repetitive date of our lifetime is a feast of Our Lady.

  1. Thank you!!
    I found this article today on someone else's blog (I think) and, darn it, forgot to copy the URL, and now I don't remember it. But here is some of the data:
    Phoenix, Ariz., Aug 7, 2009 / 04:10 pm (CNA).- Researcher and physicist Dr. Aldofo Orozco told participants at the International Marian Congress on Our Lady of Guadalupe that there is no scientific explanation for the 478 years of high quality-preservation of the Tilma or for the miracles that have occurred to ensure its preservation.
    Dr. Orozco began his talk by confirming that the conservation of the Tilma, the cloak of St. Juan Diego on which Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared 478 years ago, “is completely beyond any scientific explanation.”

  2. Yes, the cactus fibers the tilma is made of only have a shelf life of 20 years or so. It is indeed a miracle it has lasted this long.
