Holy Light
Hello everyone! I'm new here, and a relatively new atheist also ("deconverted" from Xianity about 6 months ago).
Got this in an e-mail from a friend: <a href="http://www.holylight.gr/enmain.html" target="_blank">"Holy" Light</a> Has anyone heard of this? I did a few Google searches but couldn't find anything. <img src="confused.gif" border="0"> [ May 07, 2002: Message edited by: TheFurnace ]</p> |

It's not even one worth investigating much - far too easy to fake. As miracles go, it's rubbish. |

 Anyway, no one here has a nice, thorough debunking of the event? |

What if God did something more 'spectacular', say CREATE THE UNIVERSE? |

Am I missing something??? What claim is being made that needs to be "debunked"? I don't see a single miraculous claim on the website...

The claim is that a mysterious light appears in the Temple every year on Easter. In front of everyone there.
There's even video that can be found doing a web search on "Holy Light". I couldn't find much debunking it online, would be interested to see if it's been studied. |
