'People are coming to kiss the cabinet and say prayers' - devotees flock to Kerry antique shop to see door resembling the Virgin Mary’

This has to be a joke. It’s a fcuking knot in a wooden door panel which vaguely resembles the outline of Mary. There are no facial or limb features. It’s a crock of shjt yet idiots are kissing and touching the door.

It’s not a patch on the Holy stone of clonrichert which was a Class 2 relic.

That would be an ecumenical matter.

A particular cultural group have a strong devotion to the Virgin Mary and an equally strong interest in the contents of antique shops. This should get interesting.

Remember years ago in the whest.... A slate in a cottage window had the outline of good auld Mary....

People flocked to it.

I'm wondering how you know that it, even vaguely, resembles someone who lived 2000 years ago, and of whom there are no extanct pictures ?
I think people should be flocking to see you !

That's a perfectly cromulent grievance.

The Virgin Mary appeared on a toasted cheese sandwich sometime in the '90s. It was sold at auction for $28,000 in 2004.

The type of veneer on the door of that cabinet is mahogany crotch veneer, I didn't think Mary would be associated with that kind of stuff

There's an evil red-eyed demon (red arrow) with crab-claws( yellow arrow) at it's heart

I can't unsee the dog's arse.

Thank you my child but I don’t want to take away from the big lady herself, Mrs M.

And to answer your question, we know it vaguely resembles Mary because it’s the same shape as the statue stood beside it in the picture.

They’re harming themselves, kissing doors that other equally lunar folk have been kissing. Who knows what sort of germs are now on that door!!

I thought for a minute this had something to do with the budget.

igCorcaigh

I'd just like to know, who done the rubbing, and why, exactly.

What sins could you have committed, that makes you rub against furniture, and how much did you pay, exactly.

It's all very confusing.

At the same time though, it's wrong to mock people's beliefs.

Be respectful.

Surely you're joking.

Still, its good to see life being brought back into the church.

Oh wait it is true. I wonder what she wanted.

Ah drop it, everyone knows about that craic.

If people have faith that's their business. Ridiculing people for something just because you don't happen to share their beliefs is juvenile at best.

Sure, there are plenty of threads about this already.

Didn't mean to derail.
With respect.

Travellers love this shyte and Tralee is full of em.

They cut down a tree in Rathkeale once, the pattern on the stump looked like Holy Mary.

They came in droves to venerate a tree stump for godsakes.
