Well there's my athiesm out of the window. Clear and unrefuttable evidence of Gods existence.

When one has an unlimited amount of power and could do anything then hovering a wafer would be the first startling thing that comes to mind.

It ain't real.

Let's face it, if the Almighty were going to do a bit levitating, it would more than a centimtre or two! I like the way the Priest is completely unfazed by it - probably hasn't noticed or can see why it's happening.

I didn't spot owt until I read the blurb that told me how miraculous it all was. Surely the Lord would at least reveal the card everyone in the congregation was thinking of on the bottom of one of the wafers or something. I mean, even I can float a cracker 5mm off a table.

Oddly, there is a magnetic levitation method which uses opposing magnets and pyrolytic graphite wafers. The above effect could easily have been achieved that way.

Yes, I saw this the other day on a website that was linked on another thread by abraxus:

http://www.grand-illusions.com/acatalog/info_31.html

Which makes me think one of two things:

1) Abraxus is behind this scam
2) Abraxus is God

As a demostration of how things can be taken totally out of context and completely changed in meaning greedoniz wrote:Abraxus is God


On that basis we'll sing Hymn number 358 and I shall pass amongst you with the collection plate. Bear in mind we don't want to hear the chink of coins, just the rustling of currency bills - real ones OK?!

No coins please they damage the silver.

If Abraxus is god dose this make Mandrake a very naughty boy.

I am master of misdirection, look over there.

We are not falling out young Welshy, we are debating, I think farlsy is an idiot he thinks I am one. We are just talking about who is the bigger idiot.

A totally obvious question, but if this is intended to be 'real', surely it's complete blasphemy?!?!?!?
