so these were consecrated?? by whom?

how did they know that these two hosts were consecrated when it came down??

[curtins]

it kinda looks like some sorta reduced fruit juice on them

but it still awes me cause it looks kinda like blood and I guess thats what a bleeding Eucharist would look sorta like.

Looks like jelly, not blood.

[zabbazooey]

Exactly, how do we know these hosts are even consecrated? they could be random pieces of bread. I mean yeah that's weird, but look at some of the pictures of the bleeding host.

Do you really think they had a camera there when that Korean priest (or bishop I can't remember) discovered the host bleeding and him freaking out? No.

But anyways, that's just my two cents.

lol. I'm skeptical even if they are approved by the Church.

[Fides_et_Ratio]

Actually, looking at the site.. it appears it was condemned. The bishop is the one with the authority to approve miracles/apparitions... it looks like the Archbishop condemned them as false:

[quote]"His Excellency Victorinus Kong Hee Youn of the Archdiocese of Kwangju in Korea made it official as of January 1, 1998, that his position on "the events arising in Naju" is negative. His grounds for this position were that (1) the messages "lacked genuineness and credibility," (2) "the phenomena alleged to be Eucharistic miracles were contradictory to the doctrine of the Catholic Church," and (3) "various strange phenomena arising from the statue of the Blessed Mother and Julia’s body produced no evidence that could prove that they were truly supernatural and thus from God." Based on this judgment, the Archbishop issued pastoral instructions that prohibited public services and promotional materials regarding Naju in his Archdiocese"[/quote]

..I noticed MilesChristi posted this earlier, but I wanted to bring it up again.

Now that I look at the pictures, it doesn't look anything like blood.

[Laudate_Dominum]

They don't look anything like hosts either.. And I wonder if that chalice is real..

hehe, j/k

But seriously I'm skeptical, but I was kind of believing it a little bit.

In all the lives of the Saints that I've read, they're skeptical if they themselves have visions, so I likewise am skeptical of things I have not seen, and sometimes even if the Church has given her approval.

Naturally, but if the Church approves something it's solid. Otherwise you'd be doubting the Church's special charism to discern such matters. But I must say, I've never been all about apparitions and stuff like some people, I think it might to me good to steep myself in the Marian messages of the 20th century.

i wonder how and why anyone would fake this. to do such a thing is insane and highly corrupt.

as far as i understand the Bishop said nothing of this particular incident. but i go with what the Church says.

regardless, this picture is something to think about every time we go to Mass and gives us an idea of the approved miracles when they actually happened.

What about the church in Italy where the bread and wine actually became flesh and blood?

Even if the Church says something is acceptable, She also says that Catholics don't have to believe in it. I believe that no one has to accept any private revelation.
