I've got an idea. Let's all get together and worship a potato chip that looks like a saint. Not really, that would be silly ... But, if there were a window somewhere with an image on it - that would be really cool.
I think we found a winner! There is a window in Springfield that apparently has condensation between the two glass panes that people say looks like the Virgin Mary. Now we can all go worship and pray to the window. Check out the story here.
Look, I'm not trying to be irreverent. But this is a classical case of misplaced, misguided faith. First, the Bible is clear that we are to: "You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve" (Matt 4:10). So, why are people praying to this image of Mary? Also, the Bible teaches us not to make any graven images to worship.
So, here we have a bunch of people worshiping something that has been created instead of the creator. Not much better than a golden calf.

Speaking of Potatoes, here is a link to a potato chip museum! I don't think a barbecue chip shaped like Lincoln is worthy of worship but it definitely looks cool!
