A lot of Catholic websites are making fun of Hillary Clinton, because she asked in Mexico City, who painted the famous image of the Virgin of Guadalupe on a cloak, not realizing that the spirit of Mary herself supposedly caused it to appear in miraculous commemoration of her visitation in Mexico, giving solace to the indigenous peoples, recently converted to Christianity by the none too righteous or selective sword of Hernando Cortez.
It wasn't until several months ago that I knew about these claims of Mary's divine artistry. It's a lovely legend but not very believable. It seems awfully Shroud of Turin-ish. I'm not sure Hillary is the foolish one here.
