Echoing comments of a recent similar Jesus/Hospital appearance story, I'd sort of expect that if he were to make some sort of appearance, it would be in such a way that reality as we know it would appear as YouTube does compared to HDTV.

Not a bit smeary and brown.

But it also raises in my mind a question of denied faith (albeit borrowed slightly from Douglas Adams).

In the minds of the sort of people who believe this kind of thing would not the appearance of a form of the deity act as proof? And doesn't God stubbornly refuse to prove he exists because proof and faith are (in this instance*) mutually exclusive?

To flip now from Douglas Adams to Terry Pratchett, it's like Granny Weatherwax not believing in the gods because she knows them too well. It would be like believing in the postman.



*OK, I will concede that all the science in the world could prove to me that parachutes worked, but it would be faith in the parachute I'd need to get me to jump out of an airplane, not a pie chart.

This looks even more like "The Dude" then the steamy window in the other post!

The Lord abides.

Can't get much more holy than this "appearance" though

You have to ask yourself, if you were an omnipotent being that could control all forms of existence, would you really display your likeness on a ceiling water stain?

Echoing your comment, and further to mine above, I'd expect reappearances to look something like this:



But not so feline.
