According to a report at the time the Virgin identified herself that way in a later apparition to Juan Diego's uncle, Juan Bernardino. Others state that the 1533 Church was dedicated to the spanish Lady of Guadalupe (see above), with the American version developing later. Finally it has been suggested that the name is a corruption of a Nahuatl name "Coatlaxopeuh", which has been translated as "Who Crushes the Serpent". In this interpretation, the serpent re ...

In effect, we exist before and after our current lifetime. The working hypothesis supported by AA-EVP is that these messages are, indeed, nonphysical in orig ...

| | | | | pareidolia: Encyclopedia II - Electronic voice phenomena - History Interest in EVP apparently began in the 1920s. In a Scientific American interview, Thomas Edison was quizzed on his views regarding contacting the dead. Edison (who seems to have held no strong religious belief), opined that no one knows if "our personalities pass on to another existence or sphere" but he also speculated that "it is possible to construct an apparatus which will be so delicate that if there are personalities in another existence or sphere who wish to get in touch with us in this existence or sphere, this apparatus will ...

As early as 1556 Francisco de Bustamante, head of the Franciscans in the Colony read a sermon in which he dismissed the miraculous origin of the icon: “The devotion that has been growing in a chapel dedicated to Our Lady, called of Guadalupe, in this city is greatly harmful for the natives, because it makes them believe that the image painted by Marcos the Indian is in any way miraculous.” This may have been the Aztec painter Marcos Cipac de Aquino, who was active in ...
