See Jesus In Toast – Just $3.5 Million
Thursday, May 18, 2017
Once again we present our Golden Fleece Award for waste of taxpayers’ money to the National Institutes of Health which, according to Senator Jeff Flake (R-AZ), torched $3.5 million studying “Seeing Jesus in toast: Neural and behavioral correlates of face pareidolia.”
In case you were wondering, “face pareidolia” is what causes people to see Jesus, Elvis or The Virgin Mary in objects like toast, pizza or bed sheets.
According to Kang Lee, lead author of this nonsense, “I think probably this is first time we are actually telling people: ‘This is OK for you to see Jesus on toast.’” Sure it is, Kang. It’s perfectly normal.
