The fires of Notre Dame was a devastating sight for the thousands of people gathering from a distance as burning embers floated down from the sky.

From the chaotic scene, however, one eagle-eyed observer claims she saw a vision of salvation in the form of Jesus Christ emanating from the towering flames from a photograph.


In a moment of crisis, we sometimes see what we want to see to bring us a semblance of peace. Is this such an example?

There are many things in this life that simply cannot be explained, but this sighting of Jesus brought up an interesting conversation on Twitter.

Lesley Rowan, a 38-year-old believer, shared the photo of what she interpreted as a redemptive vision.

Rowan told Scotland's Daily Record by way of the Huffington Post:

"When I looked at this photo last night, I was really astounded by what I saw. When I look at it I see a silhouette of Jesus. I really see a vivid image."

Some were shocked at what they were seeing. Can you see Him?





One user spotted an additional figure within the flames.



Many were skeptical.








If it really was Jesus atop the burning cathedral, what message might he have delivered?





A scientific explanation on how the mind plays tricks was inevitable.



The divine vision was interpreted in other ways.



But who are we to call out what others believe they are seeing?


This could be an example of the face pareidolia phenomena rather than a direct message from God.

Dr. Kang Lee, a psychologist at the University of Toronto explained to HuffPo her findings from her 2014 research into face pareidolia.

"Human brains are uniquely wired to recognize faces, so that even when there's only a slight suggestion of facial features the brain automatically interprets it as a face."

Or, maybe, there are other forces at work that are far beyond comprehension.

During Tuesday's cabinet meeting while the press was in attendance, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump gave a rambling stream of consciousness speech that went all over the place before landing on paint versus gold leaf, leading people to again question the POTUS' mental acuity amid a notable cognitive decline.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.

Adams jumped on the latest Instagram trend this week, sharing his version of a “morning routine” video with his followers. The trend, which has already begun to fade, typically features sped-up clips of people going through their early rituals—complete with edits, ambient music, and timestamp overlays.
