Well, here we have it, the definitive article explaining how Jesus walked on water. This guy's theory is that Jesus actually walked on a block of ice formed by cold air and unusually cold water temperatures. The chances of this occuring are, according to this scientist, about once in 10,000 years. Is it me or does the idea that Jesus somehow walked on a thin patch of ice or surfed on ice out to a boat require a lot more faith than just believing he walked on actualy water? If the ice thing is true, it is no less miraculous. Jesus happened to know the exact moment in 10,000 years when there would be an ice block and surfed it out to a boat and pulled Peter out of the water onto the ice block and paddled it over to the boat and did all of this in sandles? Hey if Jesus did all of that it sounds even more miraculous than just walked in the waves. I wonder what other miracles we can make more miraculous through science?

This just goes to show you that when a “scientist” is desperate for grants and funding, or if they just want to be published, they are willing to say almost anything.
On a similar note, you would not believe what some pastors out here in Colorado did for their easter Sunday services. Here is the best highlight:
There was a pastor of a certain church on a mountain that “looks out” over the rest of the city who dressed in drag. Then he/she popped the two baloons that made up his/her fake breasts… during all five services.

Pastors in drag, it’s good to see St Francis of Assisi’s quote finaly taken to heart: Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words. Maybe he should have used words, it seemed necessary!
