The Pope visits shrine at Lourdes
09/14/08
My atheist friends and I engaged in a religious discussion recently which left me feeling more religious than ever. Whenever I get interested in something, I go on Netflix and find some movies on the subject (Their "instant movie" option is great.). The first one I picked happened to be Song of Bernadette, a lovely, moving, and accurate account of the events 150 years ago.
Well, two days later, my friends tried to mock me with a picture of pilgrims at Lourdes. And, now, a couple of days after that, it turns out that all of this Lourdes talk hasn't only occurred at about the time of the year that St. Bernadette saw "The Beautiful Lady," but the 150th anniversary of those apparitions. What a coincidence!
