True and False Apparitions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26) |
 | | This could be said to be the guiding principle for this section of the website, that is that the great majority of reported visions are almost certainly false, and are due to human delusion, or illness, or malice, or, in the worst cases, to diabolical deception. |
 | | This means that not every possibly authentic Marian "event" is included here, because in some cases the people involved did not see Mary in the way that seers involved in the major recognised apparitions saw her, or such apparitions simply have not made a big enough impact on the Church. |
