STIGMATA

Stigmata is the development of wounds on the bodies of people similar to the wounds of Christ when he was crucified on the cross. The people involved are usually nuns, priests or people with a strong religious belief. The wounds these people suffer are identical to the wounds on the statue of Jesus that they actually prey too on a daily basis. Therefore if the statue has nails in the palms then the blood will flow from the palms. If the statue is nailed through the wrist, then blood will flow freely from the wrist.

It has also been reported for stigmatics to bleed from the forehead as Jesus would have, wearing the Crown of Thorns. Most strange however are a few Stigmatics who bleed from the ears and eyes.

The most common theory about stigmata is that the sufferers have caused it themselves by the power of their own mind and beliefs. Science has yet to explain the phenomena. Religious points of view argue that this is the power of Faith.
