Even if it looks remotely like a face, why would anyone think it's the face of Christ?
And the goat doesn't look the least bit like a goat. My neighbour has goats - they don't look like that.
Good Gods Goat.
Where are we going to end up.. the Rorschach world..

I don't see it but I like what you said here:
where I show how things in the Bible always keep their "symbolic, referential integrity".
I'm not Christian but I do like archetypes.

No one has ever seen Jesus so no one knows what he looked like.

Which Christ is this? The Americanised Caucasian with blond hair and manicured beard? Or the scruffy middle-eastern one which, if he ever existed at all, would be the more likely candidate.
Glad he's not too busy saving the world from famine, disease, war, poverty, abuse and genocide to appear as a stain.

Didn't some guy say Jesus showed himself on his dog's butt?
I don't know what is more funny. The similarity to an image due to the coincidental way a dog's coats lays or the fact the guy really believes it is Jesus.
The truly divine can be found in the most disgusting of places.

We could see who knows the most.
Whoa.
I'm not sure if it's wise to be challenging some of the brain matter that frequents this site - but if you do, good luck !!

Passing off an unproved assertion as though it were an obvious fact does not amount to a convincing argument. It assumes that the spirit of Jesus has never appeared to any human being since he died 2000 years ago. You can't be sure of that - it's just your belief, which is just as religious in character as the belief that Jesus materialised before the eyes of his disciples after his body died.
The artistic renditions of Jesus that exist are, of course, probably based on nothing more than imagination. But we don't need to make the redundant and unproved assumption that his spirit has never been seen in order to dismiss the absurd claim made in this video. In fact one does not need any contentious argument at all. All one needs is a little common sense.

Don't hold your head too high, I know nothing about the Bible and I wasn't referring to me challenging you...

Seriously?
Appearing in a vegetable stain? That's the best that can be done by the king of kings?
...or a tortilla, or a dogs butt, or a piece of toast, or a pizza...seriously?
How about a Facebook profile? Yeah, maybe not...Direct email address? Yeah, sorry...Here, have a stain...

Well, it's not like it's actually Him, just a message from Him. I take it to mean that he's not white, because of the nostril.
In the Bible, the Lord put weird hand writing on the wall. Nobody could even read it, but Daniel. At least with an image, you can see what it is. The writing on the wall must of just looked like non-sense. But it wasn't. Actually, you have to know that the LORD can speak through anything. Otherwise you're limiting Him and looking to certain objects too much. Prophetic stuff happens all the time, Breh. It's not just the "Stain", it's the whole story too.

...and you say all this with a straight face, Breh?
How about - in 3D widescreen curved plasma sensurround, or plastered on the technicolor moving billboards of any modern metropolis...a mass take-over of social media on the interwebs...
...no...
toast
dogs butts
tortillas
dish cloth stains
etc. etc. etc.
...and you are of the opinion that I...am 'limiting Him'?...seriously?

That's my plumber Tony.
When you see him please tell him to come back and finish installing that rain water tank he left half completed!
Thanks.
