Meant to post this last night but forgot. This evening is the third and last scheduled episode of local blogger Flavia Colgan's Miracle Quest series. Here is her description of tonight's viewing on the Travel channel at 8 p.m.:
Though it's Christian majority is readily apparent, there are innumerable other devotional followings in the U.S., from Catholics to Pentecostals and Native Americans to Voodooists, there is no place as wildly diverse on the planet! In the third and final episode of my Travel Channel series, Miracle Quest (airing at 8 PM on Friday night) I investigate the differences between these unique cultural miracles, and uncover the extraordinary origins behind them. How real are crosses of light and the healings associated with them? Are Serpent handlers really immune to the dangers of snakes, poison, and fire? Can eating dirt actually heal the sick? Do Voodoo miracles extend beyond zombies and dolls? And what does the birth of a White Buffalo portend for our future? I sift through the improbable and inexplicable in a country that is one of the top 3 places in the world where miracles are reported and where 82% of the people believe that God still works miracles today.
