NonNovi Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 [quote name='Annie12' timestamp='1346164050' post='2475292'] Does anyone know the details about this image? [/quote] [i]London, England, Aug 10, 2012 / 04:25 pm ([url="http://www.catholicnewsagency.com"]CNA/EWTN News[/url]).- Ethiopian athlete Meseret Defar provided one of the most emotional moments of the London 2012 Summer Olympic Games when she crossed the finish line in the 5000 meter race to win the gold. She then pulled a picture of the Virgin Mary out from under her jersey, showed it to the cameras and held it up to her face in deep prayer. An Orthodox Christian, Defar entrusted her race to God with the sign of the cross and reached the finish line in 15:04:24, beating her fellow Ethiopian rival Tirunesh Dibaba, who was the favorite to win. A teary-eyed Defar proudly showed the picture of the Virgin Mary with the Baby Jesus that she carried with her for the entire race.[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didacus Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 [quote name='Lil Red' timestamp='1345217050' post='2469179'] side rant: i don't like this picture, because to me it intimates that the only reason abortion is wrong is because of what those babies could have done for society. the babies that have been aborted are of value because they are made in the image and likeness of God. [/quote] Good point - but I think the pic serves its purpose by getting those atheist to pay attention... Once they pay attention, they are more open for the truth.
