An ice formation inside a Morton, Texas, grocery store's freezer is prompting tears from people who see it and has apparently answered the prayers of some visitors, according to a Local 6 News report.
IMAGES: More strange images
Morton Thrifty Foods employee Alma Avalos said when she went to the back she noticed that some drops of water from the ceiling had frozen.
As more and more people began to hear about the Virgin Mary, they started traveling in droves to see the ice.
Some people cried when they spotted the ice and others said it answered their prayers.
"I had a lump in my breast and yesterday when I went home it disappeared," a woman said. "I don't have it no more."
Others said they believe the ice formation is the real thing.
"There are some really Catholic people that really cherish her and they really know it's her and stuff like that and they are really amazed," visitor Stephanie Santos said.
Workers at Morton Thrifty Foods said they will keep the Virgin Mary in the freezer.

It might be fun to make a virgin mary ice sculpture to sell on ebay. People are superstitious, so they will buy anything.

Awww....
Too bad there's absolutely no was anybody could verify that...at all....in any way. But I'm sure it was cancer and the frozen water leak saved you.
The lack of proper use of grammar wasn't a dead giveaway of intelligence (and therefore the propensity to believe in this sort of crap) at all, was it?
I would be interested in knowing exactly how it disappeared. Like, did it shrink at a rapid pace, dissipate, expand and blow up, implode, etc; or was it just that the next time she felt herself up she didn't feel what she thought she felt before? Sorry for the sarcasm overload. I'm in a bad mood and this demon haunted world has got me down.

In other news, a stain inside Saddam Hussein's underwear has been found that bears a striking resemblance to the visage of the Holy Prepuce of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ, currently preserved at great expense in a temperature controlled solid plutonium Baptismal font in the Church of Our Lady of Cancer-Causing Resentment in the inbred Italian cesspool of Calcata. Sources say that Osama bin Laden, on seeing a photograph of the stain, remarked "Hellig dritt" which translates to sacred or holy feces in Norwegian. His closest advisors promptly arrested him, tried him later that afternoon for practicing "that Satanic Christian glossolalia" and sentenced him to hang by his prepuce until tender and juicy. Forensics experts were called in from around the world to examine the Holy Stain who unanimously agreed after thorough testing was applied to President Hussein's underthings "at or near the reported time of his execution." The Honorable Reverend Farnham Trenchmouth, official Vatican organizer of the forensic panel, when asked about the Foreskin was quoted as saying, "Of course it's OK if you touch it. Just don't tell anybody or we'll both get in trouble."

People are always seeing Jesus and Mary in the oddest things!
At least they give us something to laugh at.

I took a dump last week that looked a bit like the Virgin Mary. I so wanted to take a pic but that would have been offensive on too many levels. lol
I wonder how much that crap would have been worth?

I completely missed this fascinating bit of news. A Frozen Mary, huh? Sounds like the name of an alcoholic confection--kinda like a Bloody Mary, only you pour it into popsicle molds and freeze it for a fun summertime treat.
Seriously, though, you can't beat Catholics for sheer, off-the-wall, ready-for-the-strait-jacket lunacy. You know your life is fucked up when the most exciting thing that happens to you, the one thing that you are convinced is an answer to prayer, is an icicle that's sort of vaguely more-or-less halfway shaped like your favorite religious icon.

You know someone's going to try that now, right?

Well, I might try it with a Screwdriver or a Fuzzy Navel.

Would the alcohol actually freeze?

Hmm, I dunno, now you mention it. Maybe only the orange juice would freeze and I'd wind up with an alcoholic Sno-Cone.
