My brother, whose name shall be protected, sent me this messsage recently:

After undergoing my mid century colonoscopy today, the doctor presented me with a color photo showing four views of my guts. I was elated with his gift to be sure, but when I got home, I happened to notice that in one of the photos was the unmistakable impression of the head of Christ!

Would this get me on Letterman? The Tonight show? Should I rent space and charge for "viewings?" Can't you see the faithful lined up around the block waiting for a chance to peer through the endoscope up my my......

Wait, on second thought it could be Bin Ladin hiding in his cave.... Would this get me on Letterman? The Tonight Show? A trip to the White House?

The possibilities are endless...

Further suggestions? I'll forward the best ones to...;~)

Sounds believable to me Charley! Remember THIS STORY? Yep, truth can be stranger than fiction!

Given enough time to develop, it usually is, in fact.

to the tune of Leapy Lee's 'Little arrows':

Pics of Jesus in your colon
pics of jesus in the air
when you're staring long enough
you'll see those pictures everywhere
pics of Jesus that will hit you
and will hit you once again
even hawk-eyes are myopic
if not always, now and then.

Hey, I never get pictures to take home from my colonoscopies! Who knows miracles I could be missing?!?!? For all I know, my doctor is cashing in on my large intestine (I mean, besides the money he gets from me and my health insurance company). Humph!

When I first received this email from my Big Brother, whose name continues to be nameless to protect what little innocence he has left, I recalled an early essay I had submitted to my high school biology teacher - My Trip Down the Elementary Canal. He failed utterly to appreciate the humor of my conclusion. Needless to say I was not encouraged to pursue a scientific career.:-(

Why must it always be Christ's face? Why can't it be Elvis' face? We know what he looks like. Can't I find Elvis in my lower intestine, or hiding behind a polyp in my colon?
There don't appear to any surviving photos of Jesus. Or portraits. Except those painted on pieces of wood that are for sale by road side stands. I wonder where they got the original? Do you think the Vatican has a secret hoard of Jesus photos and portraits? Did you ever wonder if he really had long brown hair and blue eyes and aquiline features? Was he really tall and thin and handsome? Inquiring minds want to know. Give up the info, Mr. Pope, release the secret pictures!

My grandmother who was a militant atheist once sent my brother and I to St. Patrick's in Easter one year to "see the show." He may still be functioning under that influence. I certainly am.

If anyone is interested there is a website which reports the "Christ Sighting" of the week.
