Virgin Mary 'appears on turtle'

A Chicago woman claims the image of the Virgin Mary has appeared on the stomach of a pet turtle.

Shirley McVane, 81, says it appeared on a sand turtle bought by her grandson, reports the Chicago Sun-Times.

Shirley's daughter, Dolly Fordyce, 58, said: "I thought we were going crazy the first time I saw it. I looked at it and said, 'It can't be.' But then I looked again. I mean, you can't deny it."

Mrs McVane added: "She came to a holy house. I think she came to visit us so God knows she's happy and safe."

Dianne Dunagan, spokeswoman for the Archdiocese of Chicago, said: "If something like that causes people to think about God and pray, that's a good thing.

"Time usually takes care of these things. If it gets to the point where people are flocking to this thing, the church will call in experts. If people forget about it, it may just fade away."

Re: Virgin Mary 'appears on turtle'

I see why they think it looks like the virgin mary. In fact with the lines it kind of looks like our lady of guadalupe..

but, it's just a silhoutte...complete coincidence. I wouldn't think anything of it. I don't get people.
