Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Yet another miracle at the Lady of Bishwat Shrine near Ba`albak in Lebanon. I have covered the stories of those miracles--relying on the "accurate" and constant coverage in An-Nahar (the right-wing, sectarian Christian, anti-Syrian (people), anti-Palestinian (people) newspaper). The latest miracle features the kid above: as soon as he entered the church, the disabled child started to walk and then ran. Please don't be cynical. Stories about miracles in that church have been confirmed by An-Nahar--the Lebanonese newspaper of record. Once I visited that Lady of Bishwat Chruch: as soon as I entered, Hummus started to come out of my nose and ears. Who but Lady of Bishwat church can perform that miracle. What do you have to say to that now?
