This story took place in India, where almost 50 people lost their sight after staring at the sky in hopes of catching a glimpse of the rumored image of the Virgin Mary.

Medical examinations determined that their retinas were burned from staring at the sun.  Victims were adamantly insistent upon seeing an image of Mary that allegedly appeared above the house of a former hotel owner.

Despite several warnings from city and church officials regarding the dangers of looking at the sky, several people did it anyway.  (AHN News)

A wise person (my dad) once told me, "You keep doing that, you are going to go blind"!   Those people should have taken that advice!
