Two important centenaries coming up next year


The visions of Our Lady at Fatima and the Russian Revolution

reply

I'd like to see a reverse revolution, where somebody overthrows the "democratic" (hardly) government of Russia and declares himself king. That might improve things a bit. Even Prince Vegeta would be an improvement.


Have you played Atari today?

I've never been to Russia, but I have been to Fatima.

Anyone here been to Fatima?

I thought Fatima was a long discontinued brand of cigarettes...

It's a place in Portugal, where Our Lady (the Virgin Mary) appeared to three children six times

Fixed.

It's not false

You'll find that nearly all non-Catholics (and likely more than a few Catholics) don't believe those children saw anything. Real vision or not (and I'm on the not side), it had so little effect on world affairs, unlike the Russian Revolutions of 1917, that one can hardly compare the two in importance.
