Is moth wing pattern is a sign from God or Satan?

There is that rebirth thing.

Looks like Rasputin to me.

This is a guess, but Iā€™d say that when a person actually does see and report the viewing because they honestly think itā€™s a miracle, itā€™s a combination of two factors:

ā€¢ A ā€œmiracleā€ reinforces the implied correctness of someoneā€™s chosen faith.

ā€¢ Seeing that ā€œmiracleā€ makes a person appear to have deep faith.

For some people, both these things are very important. They take their faith very seriously (they want to be known as a person of ā€œstrong faithā€), and they want very much for their religion to be right above all others. In America, weā€™re dealing with some very negative people who are telling the majority (70%) that theyā€™re under attack and that they need to worry about their rights being censured. (No way.) Thatā€™s making some people of faith really want a sign - any sign, even one on nachos.

Then there are the snake-oil salesmen, who may have noticed a slight resemblance to a religious figure in an inanimate object, but didnā€™t treat it as a ā€œmiracleā€ themselves. They just saw it. Then they find a way to cash in on their viewing, and thatā€™s really horrible thing to do.

Believe me - people love to cash in on religion. Just ask the casino owners of the Virgin Mary grilled cheese sandwich.
