Nearly every day we see stories in the news about Jesus/Mary/Whoever appearing in a waterstain/piece of toast/tree branch etc. There are also a couple of photos which purpots to show the religious figure of your choice.
There is even a name for this psychological phenomenon involving vague or random things which we perceive as significant. It is called “pareidolia”.
Pareidolia is responsible for much more than Jesus in a a toasted cheese sandwich, it is also the phenomenon responsible for seeing animals/faces in clouds, the man in the moon and hearing hidden messages on songs which are played backwards.
Skeptics often claim that pareidolia is the reason why people hear ghostly voices in white noise, see shadow people out the corner of our eyes and faces on Mars.
Jessica Lundgren from Sweden sent an old photo to paranormal.about.com. The photo shows a Victorian couple with a small child sitting on the knee of the man. But clearly evident is that the child is Jesus. Or rather that the big white hat of the child is Jesus’ forehead and his tiny right forearm is Lord’s upper beard. Jesus’ hair is the vegetation in the background.
Jessica writes that “the child died short after the photo was taken”.

This is surveillance footage from a deli in Connecticut. The owner saw the condition of his store in the morning and called police. This is what they found on the video tape.
The police report lists it as “unexplained phenomenon”. Apparently the location was used as a “rum running” location during Prohibition. Although some parapsychologists suggest that poltergeists could be a form of recurrent PK, there is very little evidence for PK recorded on film or witnessed by objective parties. There are famous poltergeist cases where the activity was seen by objective parties and even skeptics.

On a misty mountaintop on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, scientists have found proof that a primate, thought to be long extinct, is in fact still around.
The tarsiers were believed to have vanished over eight decades ago, but scientists trapped three of these furry mouse sized primates over a two month period in Lore Lindu National Park in central Sulawesi. Another of these tiny creatures managed to elude capture.
Sharon Gursky-Doyen, a Texas A&M University professor of anthropology who took part in the expedition got closer to the tarsiers than she would have liked when one of them managed to bite her on her finger.
“I’m the only person in the world to ever be bitten by a pygmy tarsier,” Gshe said in a telephone interview.
