What Is The Lds Reaction To The Miracles Of Fatima?

[oremites]

I have never seen much from the LDS community about this, other than the belief that somehow these must be "of Satan" and left unexplained.

 

In my limited experience with this subject, I've never heard anyone in the LDS community characterize them as being "of Satan".  I'm not saying that never happens but I don't believe that's the common attitude (granting that most LDS probably have no idea what the Miracles of Fatima are).

 

The only reactions I've seen range from disbelief that it ever happened to the view that God can and does give spiritual guidance to people of all faiths.

I think that with some notable exceptions, most LDS I've met aren't too familiar with history of other faiths. I don't mean that as a criticism, though I do think part of our spiritual growth certainly requires a good knowledge of what other ideas are out there.

This is my favorite picture that we have. It testified to me that Jesus would not just come to one group of his children...such as the Jews. He would come to us all. In this respect, I do not see why he would not come to others, in their own way.

I may be LDS, but I love these kind of stories.  They made a movie of this Lady of Fatima called The Miracle of Our Lady Of Fatima (1952). I have watched it several times. I also love the movie The Song Of Bernadette. Both movies make me cry every time. I know its all Catholic belief, but I guess I'm just a sucker for wanting to believe in miracles no matter what the religion. I also enjoy biblical movies ( Ten Commandments, David and Bathsheba, King of Kings, etc) Yeah I know....all Hollywood stuff, but I don't care. Its the stories of faith and good winning over evil, that I think are cool.

In that genre watch "Miracle of Marcelino". If you do not bawl your eyes out for that one you have no heart. Dubbed from Italian I think
