TOAST!

And Now A Few Words From The Pontiff
1. Denying that the Holocaust ever happened is perfectly okay, as long as you say it in Latin.
2. Being a drug smuggler, on the other hand, will get you kicked out on your ass. But, don’t worry, because our secret tribunal really isn’t a torture chamber…any more…
3. Only His Holiness will determine which pieces of toast REALLY have pictures of Jesus on them, and which ones are fake. Plus, we want a 5% finder’s fee on anything you sell on eBay that even remotely looks like anyone.
4. Facebook is bad…really, really bad. But YouTube is where the action is, kids, so come watch my videos and vote them up-up-UP!
In Nomine Patri et Fili et Spiritu Sanctu, Amen.

Do you see the face of Jesus in this piece of toast?
Good. Neither do I. Just making sure.

Another Miracle!
Well, it’s about freaking time! At last an image of a piece of toast has magically appeared on Jesus Christ!
I wonder how much he’ll get for that on eBay.

Of Course It’s Not Jesus, That’s Not A Piece Of Toast
Slashfood reports that an enterprising individual is trying to sell this somewhat misshapen strawberry on eBay with the claim that it looks like the good ol’ U.S.A. The starting bid is a low, low 99 cents (plus $20 S+H)
No bids yet, even though he does promise to give a portion of his winnings to charity.
At least it’s not another Jesus or Virgin Mary sighting.
Personally, I think it looks more like Ninja Kirby:

Does that look like Jesus to you? Really? REALLY?? (via)
It’s no Spud O’Christ, I’ll tell you that much.

A Matter Of Perspective
We’ve talked about pareidolia before: that trick of human psychology that lets us interpret random shapes and objects as familiar icons, particularly the faces or images of other people. It’s especially prevalent among “the faithful”, who have a disturbing tendency to see the face of Jesus or the image of the Virgin Mary in everything from toast to dog butts.
So yesterday, the Daily Mail reported that a Polish priest thinks he’s seen the image of Pope John Paul II in this photo of a bonfire:
Someone’s been sneaking a little too much sacramental wine at morning mass, I think, because OBVIOUSLY it isn’t the pope at all, it’s the quarterback for the University of Michigan Wolverines!
Although, to be fair, it does look like he’s dropping back for a Hail Mary pass.
