Question

What do you see in the picture?

A puzzle piece, perhaps?

I studied arabic for a year and it does appear to spell "ala" in arabic script. The letters are thicker than most hand writing, but caligraphy is really big in arabic so you might see someone write like that. I think we'd react the same way if a baby was born with "bob" written of his face in cursive.

Usual shit. People clutching at straws and seeing what they want to see in a desperate attempt to affirm their faith.

Oh come on. Proof of what? That the baby is the Torah?

Reminds me of the old Clive Barker quote: "'Everyone's a book of blood; whenever we're opened we're red."

Based on this post and his extensive oeuvre, I am ready to declare Dilandau the finest satirical mind of his generation.

First I thought as many of you: mickey the mouse, but after Bullwinkle was mentioned I'm convinced. It's bullwinkle, those are round elkhorns... not mouseears.

One thing I've always wondered is why do people believe in these kind of things? And so strongly.

Apparently, this type of shit counts as "evidence" for some people. Pretty low standards TBFH.

I dont know arabic so I cant say whether or not it looks like an arabic letter, but it looked kinda just random to me.
