I was looking at the Fatima Sun miracle. For those who don't know about it, Google it, but it was a very convincing miracle for me.
There was 70,000 people who were first hand witnesses to the sun dancing around the sky, hurting towards earth than backing off. The sun spinning in place etc. Etc.
I was thinking. This is some solid evidence of God and more specifically evidence for the Catholic faith.
I mean 70,000 people witnessed this. Let's say 25% of that crown is retarded or liars. Than we still have like 50,000 people who will call them on their bullshit.
So I became convinced. No way would there be so many gullible people in one place at one time.
Then it happened. I went on YouTube. I ran into video after video of people with cameras pointed at the sun. The sun would look perfectly normal and they would say it moved, every time a cloud floated in front of it. They would say it was coming at them, whe. It was standing still. I am talking multiple videos of people convinced they are seeing a miracle.
This video is probably the best example I found.
I promise from here on out to be more willing to consider mass delusion as an explanation for things. I didn't want to think mass delusion could could play out this way. I thought of it more like a contagion but I was wrong. This saddens me greatly and I lost a bit of faith today, not just in God and perhaps worse than that. I lost faith in people.
