The Catholic church has its own Bible.Not that much different to the standard King James plus a few extra chapters.They have added a few bits and deleted a few bits where it didn't suit their agenda.However it is their interpretation of some of the passages in the Bible that is more controversial than the actual differences in what is contained in the book.

On her last visit on October 13, 1917 a crowd of 70,000 people, including reporters from anti-religious newspapers, gathered in a torrential rainstorm to witness the scheduled arrival of the Virgin Mary, which led to the famous Sun Miracle of Fatima.

gathered in a torrential rainstorm to witness the scheduled arrival of the Virgin Mary
Which only the 3 children saw. (2 siblings & 1 cousin I believe or vice versa). And only the oldest one , a girl, spoke to the vision & received (alleged), instructions. And the Vatican, claims to have the last 'letter', & refuses to release it. Allegedly it is ' end of the world', information. |

According to Fr. John De Marchi, an Italian Catholic priest and researcher who spent seven years in Fatima, 110 miles north of Lisbon, studying the phenomenon and interviewing witnesses,
“Engineers that have studied the case reckoned that an incredible amount of energy would have been necessary to dry up those pools of water that had formed on the field in a few minutes as it was reported by witnesses.” Dr. Domingos Pinto Coelho, a noted lawyer from Lisbon and chairman of the Bar Association, reporting in the newspaper Ordem, wrote: “The sun, at one moment surrounded with scarlet flame, at another aureoled in yellow and deep purple, seemed to be in an exceedingly swift and whirling movement, at times appearing to be loosened from the sky and to be approaching the earth, strongly radiating heat.” Dr. Almeida Garrett, professor of natural sciences at the University of Coimbra, was present and was frightened by the spinning sun. Afterward, he wrote: “The sun’s disc did not remain immobile. This was not the sparkling of a heavenly body, for it spun round on itself in a mad whirl, when suddenly a clamor was heard from all the people. The sun, whirling, seemed to loosen itself from the firmament and advance threateningly upon the earth as if to crush us with its huge fiery weight. The sensation during those moments was terrible.” http://www.patheos.com/blogs/kathyschiffer/2014/10/so-that-all-may-believe-the-miracle-of-the-sun/ |

I'm not Catholic so it doesn't matter to me. I think people get worked up and see what they what at times. I would think Mary (who was only human) would have better things to do in the after life

It could all really have happened but there are logical explanations for some of these things.There are many interpretations and descriptions of what actually happened and the phenomena listed above are a very poor account.There is little doubt that something very extraordinary did happen but whether there was anything supernatural about these events is another matter. |
