Episode Synopsis
This episode on Medjugorje (or skeptics like to call it….”Mega-forgery”) is for all of those naysayers looking for hard evidence in the supernatural.
Having just celebrated the 39th anniversary of the appirations that first took place on June 25th 1981. Do you realize that NO other time in the history of apparitions have visions, of this type, lasted for such a long time, and on a daily basis? Also, the technology available today in the field of psychology and physiology have never been available during apparitions of other visionaries, such as with Bernadette in Lourdes in the 1800’s, or the three children of Fatima in 1917. Medjugorje was the first opportunity where a battery of tests using high tech equipment could be used to study every facet of the human being’s experience in the midst of an ecstatic state.
Italian neurophysiologist, Dr. Marco Margnelli, a specialist in ecstasy and altered states of consciousness, was part of the group of Italian doctors who tested the visionaries in 1985. Prior to his investigation he was an Atheist. Now, he confesses, he is now a practicing Catholic. There was not one doctor, professor, theologian, or scientist who tested the visionaries in all the 28 years of the apparitions that found anything abnormal about their behavior. There have been allegations by those who do not believe the apparitions to be true that the visionaries are hallucinating, lying, under the influence of satan, etc., but in regards to the actual tests and observations made by professionals in that area of expertise, the visionaries were found to be normal in every respect concerning their mental well-being.
After hearing of all the hard data, I think you will agree, there really isn’t much more proof we can ascertain. In fact, let me leave you with this thought….. if you were to turn the tables, and YOU were one of the visionaries, just ask yourself, what more evidence could you possibly give that would show more proof?
