I was intrigued, mostly because I found this frightening.  I know these are the very pagan idols which the God of Abraham spoke against.  At least though, I didn't just dismiss what I am seeing and what has been reported.  I did some researching into it and find that there seems to be a plausible scientific explanation... although there is no explanation for why the phenomena stops after short periods only to return again at later times.  So it is still a mystery.

 The "Lady" did not provide any concrete information, did she?  No, just vague "visions" of "rivers of blood". 

Aghhh... Why couldn't you have just watched the video?  then speak.  then maybe your input would have some value.
Why couldn't you just keep an open mind and watch the video, and see the things which the Lady did have to say.  It's all in there.  If the people would have listened they could have been spared.
It took me a whole day to watch the video through the first time.  I don't know that I can sacrifice another day to go back through it to show you the things that were spoken in the visions that absolutely would have helped to save the people.


It would have been more worthwhile if the "Lady" would have provided some real information, such as when the massacres would occur, who would be responsible, some warning signs of the coming violence, etc. 

You think with the limited mind of human being.  If the almighty Creator of all doesn't give it to you in the way your human mind thinks that He should, then it doesn't count... it has no value ???  (You really should read the book of Job)
Who are you to tell God the way that He should communicate?  What if you were to apply that same standard to the angel that appeared to Muhammad?  If God wanted people to believe why did an angel appear only to one man in a cave?  Do you question allah on this?

That could be due to a disorder known as "periodic catatonia".  Or it could be that these people had practiced to assume this state.

If you watched I do not think you would be making this statement.
If you were to make this statement after watching, I could maybe accept it.  We could actually have intellectual discussion.

 You just show your gullibility in believing this nonsense without thinking.  Why does that seem to be your mantra? 
"Don't think.  Just believe."

You think I blindly accepted?  That just shows you have learned nothing about me in all this time.  I do alot of thinking or I would not be here to discuss.  I consider all things and am not afraid to research.

Lady of Fatima
so then you are unaware of the prophesies regarding the collapse of communism in Russia?
and the attempt on the life of the Pope?
These things which clearly came to pass.


You haven't watched the video so you are completely unaware of what the Lady said.  You speak with no knowledge.  You are afraid your own belief might be challenged?

There was a means to stop what happened.  The killing was the result of demon activity.  If the people had turned to God, as the Lady implored them to do, they would have found the protection of God against these demon possessions.  You see, you have the idea of who the demons were, all backwards, which you would understand if you watched the program Ghosts of Rwanda.  You really should watch.  Those who did the killing have this many years later such grief over it, and speak of how they have no explanation, it was "as if we became possessed".  
It would help also in understanding the demon possessed men who remove the hearts and livers of human beings in Syria to eat them.
We must be sure to recognize and separate what is true evil.

Also, had you been open minded enough to watch this video, you would know that the way Immaculee Ilibagiza and 6 others survived was by a pastor who kept them hidden.
I'm sure their was good and evil on both sides to go around.
Just goes to show, it is not about being 'muslim', or 'Christian', or anything else.  It is about being for God, or not.


asalaam,
Caringheart

Thank you for proving my point!  You were skeptical of these so-called "miracles", and you find it "plausible" that there is a "scientific explanation".  Yet, when it comes to the so-called "visions" in Rwanda, in your biased view, they must be genuine, even though there are other, more plausible explanations, such as the ones I have suggested. 

By the way, you also showed your double standards with regard to the idols.  You admit that the Hindu idols are an offense to God, yet you don't seem to think the statues of Mary are also offensive to Him!  Confused  Those people pray to the statue!  How different is that from Hindus praying to their idols of Ganesh or Shiva?!  If Mary had genuinely visited these people, she would have warned them to stop their idolatrous practices.

LOL You are so full of crap, it's not even funny.  Oh wait, yes it is...

I have already looked into the so-called "visions".  I don't need to watch the entire video.  I have better things to do.  From what I have read, the visions provided absolutely no concrete information, so you are just a liar or just plain confused. 

Here is what the "Lady" showed the "visionaries" about the coming war:

"...a river of blood, people who were killing each other, abandoned corpses with no one to bury them, a tree all in flames, bodies without their heads." (http://www.michaeljournal.org/kibeho.htm)

Wow, that's impressive isn't it?  Clap 

So, there was no information given that could have been used to try to halt the violence before it began.  Just vague references to a "river of blood" and "killing".  Yeah, that should have narrowed it down a bit! Shocked

Well, I am a human being, so how should I think? Big%20smile 

Since you obviously don't think "with the limited mind of human being", that must mean that you are not a human being!  Eureka, I got it!  Your secret's out, Caringheart!

Calm down, Caringheart.  Don't get too worked up.  LOL

You obviously cannot answer the difficult questions I have asked.  I guess you were just joking when you claimed that you wanted to have an "intelligent discussion", eh? Wink

I have asked perfectly legitimate questions.  The so-called "visions" would have been more impressive if some concrete information would have been given, such as the exact date that the genocide would begin, the ringleaders that would be involved and the warning signs that the violence was imminent (such as the shooting down of the Hutu president's plane, which was the immediate cause of the violence).  NONE of this information was provided by the so-called "Lady".  What a cruel joke...It sounds like the work of Satan to me or perhaps just a random incident of mass hysteria.

Right now, there is not much "intelligence" coming from you, just a lot of inane babble.  Periodic catatonia can easily explain the states these people were in.  So could demonic activity.

Clap Thank you for showing how much "research" and "thinking" you have really done on this matter.  For those who use their reason, let me debunk your nonsense. 

The first "prophecy" made by the...ahem..."Lady" was the end of World War I and the start of World War II:

"...but if people do not cease offending God, a worse one will break out during the reign of Pius XI. When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign given to you by God that He is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine and persecutions of the Church and of the Holy Father."

Sounds impressive, doesn't it?  Oh but wait, here is the kicker:

"Lucia revealed this prophecy in writing during 1940 - after the Second World War had already begun. Also, it's interesting that Pius XI is actually named in the prophecy. When the apparition of Our Lady allegedly made the prophecy in 1917, Benedict XV was Pope. Pius XI became Pope in 1922. So either Our Lady also predicted the name of the future Pope, who reigned until 1939, or Lucia did some prophecy fulfilling of her own." (http://paranormal.about.com/od/marianapparitions/a/fatima-prophecies.htm)

And as for the alleged prophecy about the "attempt on the life of the Pope", here is what the "prophecy" actually stated:

"...the Holy Father passed through a big city half in ruins and half trembling with halting step, afflicted with pain and sorrow, he prayed for the souls of the corpses he met on his way; having reached the top of the mountain, on his knees at the foot of the big Cross he was killed by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows at him..."

So, if this was a reference to the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul, then it was a pathetically incorrect.  In other words, it was a false prophecy.  And by the way, what soldier still uses "arrows" in this day and age? Confused

Oh I love it when superstitious simpletons cannot defend their absurd claims and so lash out at those who criticize them.  Don't blame me for your so-called "Lady's" incompetence.  It is obvious that you and the other gullible people who believe this nonsense have been easily taken in by a cruel joke.  It was either a result of an elaborate hoax or the work of demonic forces.

Oh how convenient!  So these monsters perpetrated some of the worst acts of violence and then did not have the integrity to accept responsibility and instead blamed the devil.  It sounds like they were trying to make excuses.  It would have been more prudent if they had just accepted responsibility and face their punishment.

People don't have to be "demon possessed" in order to to bad things.  Responsibility lies with those who commit these crimes.  Blaming the devil is a cop-out.  The devil makes suggestions.  He doesn't force people to do things.  They do it themselves at the instigation of the devil.

How surprising that you try to downplay the fact that numerous church leaders took part in the genocide!  Of course there were church leaders who hid people, but there were just as many leaders who stood by and allowed the massacres to occur.  Why didn't the "Lady" point out these future murderers of the church?  Shocked

Greetings islamispeace,

That's where you are wrong.  I watched both video's with the same critical eye. 
While I admitted that 
there might be a plausible scientific explanation for the one you provided... I also said...
"although there is no explanation for why the phenomena stops after short periods only to return again at later times.  So it is still a mystery."

The more I watched the video of Kibeho, the more compelling I found the girls visions to be, that's why I am interested to discuss with others what they think after viewing.


By the way, you also showed your double standards with regard to the idols.  You admit that the Hindu idols are an offense to God, yet you don't seem to think the statues of Mary are also offensive to Him!  Confused  Those people pray to the statue!  How different is that from Hindus praying to their idols of Ganesh or Shiva?! 

The Hindus actually believe their statues to be gods.
No one believes a statue of Mary to be a god.  It is merely a representation of her image... of a person who actually walked the earth,
but I am not for these statues either.   I just don't think people are condemned for worshiping God in front of one... not when they in their hearts are worshiping the God of their heart.

I'm not saying that the people aren't misguided, because that is why Mary was appearing to them, because they were off of God's path.

I honestly don't know if a statue of Mary, mother of Yshwe, is an offense to God.
Things did change after Yshwe came.  He brought with Him a whole new covenant with God.


If Mary had genuinely visited these people, she would have warned them to stop their idolatrous practices.

Perhaps.  But then one must consider that if the vision is true, the fact that she did not.  She seemed to have more important things to address.

Well, I am a human being, so how should I think? Big%20smile 
As I said, you should read the book of Job, and understand what I am saying.  As Yshwe said; 'He that hath ears to hear, let him hear' and understand. 
God rebukes Job with the words, 'Do you have the mind of God to say how He should do?  Did you create the heavens and the earth, and all that is in it?'


Can you explain how a person can stare at the sun without their retina's burning?
The girls were studied by psychologists who found no earthly explanations.  This was all detailed in the video.

If I apply your reasoning, then I guess one could say also that Muhammad may have been possessed by demons.  Why do you believe that He was not?

At least in these cases we have actual film footage and many witnesses of the events as they took place.  It is truly astounding footage to watch.

What do you think demon possessed behavior would look like?
You think these girls may have been demon possessed, though their faces shine with joy and then sorrow...
but you reject that horrific killings that took place could have been caused by demon possession?
If you ask me it is quite obvious which is demon possessed behavior.



Oh I love it when superstitious simpletons cannot defend their absurd claims and so lash out at those who criticize them.

I wasn't lashing out.  I just wonder what it is that keeps you from opening your mind.  I conclude it must be fear.
Why, I ask, do you feel the need to criticize instead of discuss?
It would be beneficial if you could learn to have civil conversation, even as you discuss your differing ideas, without feeling the need to throw insults at people.  Your words don't lose weight when they carry with them mocking and insults.  The fact that you need to mock and insult causes your arguments to be lacking in persuasiveness.

Again, you would not say that if you opened your mind and watched Ghosts of Rwanda.  I guess you do not recognize that;

12 ... we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

I guess you do not believe, even as you say that you do... in the power of demons on earth.
The men of Rwanda do accept responsibility and punishment.  There are many that do not feel they deserve to live, but live they must.  Dying would be easier.

Apparently you don't believe in the power of the devil to posses,
and you must not believe in Yshwe who cast out demons.

How surprising that you try to downplay the fact that numerous church leaders took part in the genocide!  Of course there were church leaders who hid people, but there were just as many leaders who stood by and allowed the massacres to occur.

I'm not downplaying anything.  (Why were you upplaying the role of muslims?  I did not attack you for doing this.  In fact I agreed that I am sure their was good and evil on both sides to go around, and that being 'muslim' or 'Christian' had nothing to do with who was good and who was evil.)

Anyway please provide your source.  I would like to read what you know about these 'church leaders that took part in the genocide'.
(I have been re-watching, and the video does say, 'in some cases priests aided in the killings and it is easy to conclude that evil was involved'.  This only brings me back to what I originally said, that good and evil can exist anywhere and we must be careful in discerning what is true evil.  It can overtake anyone, at anytime.)

Shukran and salaam,
Caringheart



Do you believe in the power of prayer?

Added note:  Your theory of Periodic catatonia does not apply since the girls were not catatonic but rather were animated, awake, and coherent.

As regards the presidents plane being shot down...
you should listen to the radio broadcasts that were the direct cause of the violence...
They made vile statements and very deliberately incited the hutu's to violence against the tutsi's...
quite similar to how people were incited to violence all over the place, on the pretext of the Muhammad video, after the Benghazi incident.

"Men who hated the tutsi's took over the government."
"They killed, even their neighbor, babies and women, with no emotions."
You don't think this is demonic?

There is much to be learned from Rwanda...
so much to be learned.
