1. Our Lady of Zeitoun

It is believed that St.Mary have appeared in a Coptic Orthodox Church in Zeitoun, Egypt, and many people can't explain the numerous of apparitions. It has happened for years so often that the Egyptian government cited them as legit apparitions. Millions of Christians, Muslims, and even Atheists came from around the world to witness the sights.

2. Father Makary Younan's Exorcisms

Many priests have performed exorcisms in the past, and science has not found a way to explain the paranormal. Lots of times psychology would label someone as sane and not find a reason for their extremely bizarre capabilities or how they act.

3. Paintings of Martyrs Leaking Oil

This has yet to be explained but some churches and monasteries' have paintings that are believed to have been leaking or are leaking tons and tons of oil. Science has yet to discover a natural explanation for this or its occurrence.

4. Shroud of Turin

The Shroud of Turin is thought to have been the burial cloth of Jesus, whose body was never discovered. What scientist can't explain is how the blood type matches up to some miracles that happened before such as live Eucharist, the DNA behind the Shroud, or even how the Shroud looks like a photographic negative. Scientists have been studying and doing tests on this particular cloth for decades.

5. Undecaying Bodies of Saints

Some bodies of really spiritual people have known to have never decayed, or decompose. Science has no natural or biological explanation for this whatsoever, and it has baffled scientists for years.

6. Statues Weeping Blood

Statues of famous saints and figures have been known to be weeping blood or dropping blood, and scientists have tested the blood and have been baffled by what has been going on.

7. Noah's Ark Found

Noah's ark and pieces of it have been found and it does match the Torah. What scientist can't explain is that if Noah's ark did in fact exist fully intact, the possibility of the whole story of Noah being true.

8. Apparitions of Famous Saints

Throughout centuries, many famous saints from St.Abanoub to the Virgin Mary have appeared in numerous of places. What scientist can never explain is how these apparitions are possible. Holographic technology wasn't around at those time, so the possibility of it being a hoax is nearly impossible.

9. Blood of St. Januarius

The Blood of St.Januarius have liquefied for years during his feast day, although it has failed to liquefy many times under Pope Francis, many people are wondering why it was able to liquefy at all before in the first place.

10. Reviving people after being dead for 45 minutes.

From stories of Colton Burpo to less common stories on local news, medical doctors can never explain why people who were pronounced dead for periods of time can come back to life. Most of the times when doctors pronounce someone dead, not only they have no pulse, but they also have little to no hope of bringing them back. If not a miracle out of this world, it is at least a miracle of science.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
