Iron Jesus


Here is a link to a short article about a woman who thinks that there is an image of Jesus Christ on her dirty old iron.

The interesting thing about the article is that it highlights the media coverage of this woman and her iron, and points out that it is not newsworthy and therefore should not even be discussed by the news media.

There have been dozens of stories just like this one, where people think they see the image of Jesus or the Virgin Mary on a wooden panel or a pancake or a stain on their living room couch. It's absolutely delusional, and its sad that a woman who is down on her luck and facing tough times needs to turn to something like this to cheer herself up. Whatever works for her I guess.
