		<description>I already feel sorry for this kid... he/she (I didn&#039;t catch the sex of it) will be entering a world that has televised his/her sonogram and dubbed it &quot;divine&quot;.

They might be raising the next Charles Manson as a result...I mean, they are aluding that this kid is divine and &quot;blessed of god&quot;.  Charles Manson thought he was jesus for christ&#039;s sake!

I can see the disaster coming...so sad.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t even see Jesus (or the crucifix, or whatever) in the first ultrasound, let alone the second, although the image of the baby in the second is much clearer.

Maybe it&#039;s time for my annual eye check up?  Or is it like those hologram poster things that were popular several years back in the 90s where you had to sort of look &quot;past&quot; the poster to see the sailboat or whatever.

Come to think of it, I wasn&#039;t very good at those, either.

No kings,

		<description>Actually, the first one looked like a Cyanide and Happiness character to me because of the semi-circle at the bottom that looks like legs. I could see the cross, but not any person on it. So it makes him look like he&#039;s bowing, like &quot;Yep. I fucked her.&quot;

Perhaps this actually foretells that the kid will die in a freak accidental crucifiction? Why are visions of Jesus supposed to always be good things?</description>

		<description>There is actually a term for this phenomenon: pareidolia, a type of apophenia, which means basically seeing something significant in an otherwise insignificant object.  Seeing Jesus&#039; face in a grilled cheese sandwich, the virgin Mary in a tortilla, or a monkey god in a scarred tree trunk are all examples of pareidolia.  Leonardo Da Vinci called it eidetic vision.

		<description>I didn&#039;t see Christ in the second picture but the baby looks like Mahatma Ghandi. Wonder what Christ and Ghandi are talking about in there.</description>

		<description>Well, I belive it&#039;s preferable an avalanche of Ultrasound Jesus to a French-Fried Jesus in every order of fries.

Ultrasounds are not to be eaten, so that won&#039;t take away a pleasure of life.</description>
