    Father Hubert Shiffer was one of these. He was 30 when the atomic bomb exploded at Hiroshima and lived another 33 years in good health. He recounted his experiences at Hiroshima during the Eucharistic Congress held in Philadelphia (USA) in 1976. At that time, all eight members of the Jesuit community were still alive. Father Shiffer was examined and questioned by more than 200 scientists who were unable to explain how he and his companions had survived in the midst of thousands of dead. He attributed it to the protection of the Madonna. He declared: 'I was in the middle of the atomic explosion and I am still here alive and well. I was not struck down by its destruction.' Furthermore, Father Shiffer maintained that for several years hundreds of experts and investigators continued to study and investigate the scientific reasons as to why the church house was not affected. He explained that in that house there was just one thing that was different: in that house the Holy Rosary was recited together every day."









    Rosary Miracle - Safe in the Midst of Hiroshima Nuclear Blast !!
    Feb 2000
    Dr. Stephen A. Rinehart & Dr. Richard F. Hubbell



    God can and does miraculously protect those consecrated to Him - especially through the Rosary - even in the midst of a powerful nuclear detonation. Every effort at meticulous and verifiable accuracy - with as many direct sources as possible being quoted and URL's being provided - in the preparation of this article - which originally came about as a series of emails between the two authors. ****************************************************

    Rosary Miracle at Hiroshima - August 6th, 1945


    There was a home eight blocks (about 1 kilometer) from where the A-Bomb went off in Hiroshima Japan. This home had a church attached to it which was completely destroyed, but the home survived, and so did the eight German Jesuit missionaries who prayed the rosary in that house faithfully every day. These men were missionaries to the Japanese people, they were non-military, but because Germany and Japan were allies during WWII they were permitted to live and minister within Japan during the war. Not only did they all survive with (at most) relatively minor injuries, but they all lived well past that awful day with no radiation sickness, no loss of hearing, or any other visible long term defects or maladies. Naturally, they were interviewed numerous times (Fr. Schiffer, a survivor, said over 200 times) by scientists and health care people about their remarkable experience and they say "we believe that we survived because we were living the message of Fatima. We lived and prayed the rosary daily in that home." Of course the secular scientists are speechless and incredulous at this explanation - and they are sure there is some "real" explanation - but at the same time over 55 years later the scientists are still absolutely bamboozled when it comes to finding a plausible scenario to explain the missionary's unique escape from the hellish power of that bomb.

    The overriding conclusion from my review of the weapon effects at Hiroshima is that this weapon was intentionally designed and deployed to kill or maim as many humans as possible in residential housing (or unprotected outside) over the widest possible area for the weapon�s size (while minimizing radiation effects from contaminated debris being thrown up into atmosphere). Since much of the Hiroshima industrial capacity was also located in unreinforced brick structures this type of airblast would also destroy any unreinforced masonry or brick buildings. One of the most flammable items on a person is their hair and clothing.
    Much of the clothing at this time was cotton (or blended cotton) which would be considered highly flammable. I suddenly came to the realization that the intent of propagating a fireball at this height was to be able to set fire to a person�s clothing (and all types of fabrics) at relatively long distances from the blast�s epicenter. The airblast would be felt for miles (blowing out windows and damaging most all structures by cracking the walls) and terrorize the remaining population. Hence, the description by those who survived of seeing burned bodies everywhere (or charred skeletons) and skin that was shredded into strips is consistent with the bombing order to hit a populated city in the center without specific regard to military objectives [See Remarks - located four paragraphs below].

    It appears the Jesuits (at one kilometer from the geometric epicenter) had greater than 90% probability of being outside the atomic bomb�s �plasma� since it was an airburst but they were on the �hairy edge�. Depending on the actual height of detonation, the Jesuits must have had the edge of the fireball literally outside their window. Assuming they were just outside of the plasma, their residence should still have been utterly destroyed (temp > 2000 F and airblast pressures > 100 psi). In contrast, unreinforced masonry or brick walls (representative of commercial construction) are destroyed at 3 psi, which will also cause ear damage and burst windows. At ten psi, a human will experience severe lung and heart damage, burst eardrums and at 20 psi your limbs can be blown off. Your head will be blown off by 40 psi and no residential or unreinforced commercial construction would be left standing. At 80 psi even reinforced concrete is heavily damaged and no human would be alive because your skull would be crushed All the cotton clothes would be on fire at 350 F (probably at 275F) and your lungs would be inoperative within a minute breathing air (even for a few seconds) at these temperatures. Conclusion: There are no physical laws to explain why the Jesuits were untouched in the Hiroshima airblast. There is no other actual or test data where a structure such as this was not totally destroyed at this standoff distance by an atomic weapon. All who were at this range from the epicenter should have received enough radiation to be dead within at most a matter of minutes if nothing else happened to them. There is no known way to design a uranium-235 atomic bomb, which could leave such a large discrete area intact while destroying everything around it immediately outside the fireball (by shaping the plasma).

    Don't have a source to hand (and I'm off to bed now), but there was other, non-Chrisitian folk who survived the blast unscathed who were closer to the centre than these lads?

    Also, I'd hazard a guess that there were loads of good Christians who did go up in the blast, and more that suffered from exposure effects.

    They all developed cancer these did not .Those who did surrive were in Conctrete structures These men were not
    also they were in a wooden structure and only got Cuts from the glass . They never got any from of burns .
    The wooden structure stood . Thats a mirricle in its self

    Rather than campaign for recognition, or complain about his lot - even though he spent 16 years wrapped in bandages to help him recover from severe burns - the former draughtsman and engineer rarely talked about what happened to him.
    But now, dying of cancer, a disease that struck down so many of the other victims of the blasts, he has decided to speak out about the horrors of atomic weapons

    Where was the miracle for the hundreds of thousands who didn't survive, though?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 117 ✭✭Ken bryan


    Not only did they all survive with (at most) relatively minor injuries, but they all lived well past that awful day with no radiation sickness, no loss of hearing, or any other visible long term defects or maladies. Naturally, they were interviewed numerous times (Fr. Schiffer, a survivor, said over 200 times) by scientist

    From a scientific viewpoint, what happened to those Jesuits at Hiroshima still defies all human logic from the laws of physics as understood today (or at any time in the future). It must be concluded that some other (external) force was present whose power and/or capability to transform energy and matter as it relates to humans is beyond current comprehension. >From the standpoint of the current universal �string� theory in physics (relating atomic scale effects to macroscopic world)
    it suggests that the physical �strings� (i.e., bodies) of the Jesuits and the �energy strings� representing the house�s physical matter) were either transformed at the moment of the blast into an opposing energy field (to cancel the weapon effects and then transformed back on a time scale totally imperceptible to humans) or an enormous external force field was present which precisely cancelled the weapon�s effects over the totally irregular geometry of the residential house including protecting the occupants

    would you not consider answering the question asked above?

    Explain how the wooden Buliding surrived .
    With only the windows effected . .
    Why did it not burn down ?
    Why was it not blown down ?

    I'd like you to cite any version of string theory which supports this.

    Did the Christians who died not pray hard enough?

    What buildings were between the wooden building and the blast site? Perhaps they were incredibly lucky to be behind multiple larger, stronger buildings that absorbed the bulk of the shockwave to the extent that it essentially missed the wooding building. It'd be interested to see a direct line from their building to the bomb, and whether the buildings behind it were still standing too
