I just watched a youtube video on the Fatima miracle. I find the evidence for the Sun miracle very doubtful:
If it was a strange/extraordinary movement of the Sun, how come no one observed it outside Portugal. Did Portugal/Fatima have an autonomous sun:)?
If the sun really moved strangely, not just **looked **like moving…, it had to be observed by millions elswhere and in particular by observatories, which always notice such phenomena. No records there. It seems to me like a trick was played with the vision of the crowd.
Does anyone have any thougths on that?

Hi,

The miracle of the sun was a miracle! It was a sign from God for the people who were gathered there. It had been raining and the people were drenched. But by the end of the experience, everyone’s clothes were dry. It didn’t have to be seen elsewhere for it to be a real miracle. It also doesn’t matter if it was really spinning or just appeared to spin. Either way, it was a miracle. Thousands of people there saw it. It did happen.

Do you honestly think that God can’t make the sun spin or appear to spin, in one place without it being observed elsewhere? If so, you have a very limited notion of God and His power. For Him to create us out of nothing and keep us in existence, spinning the sun has to be a snap!
