This here is something that has puzzled me. Ever since I was little I remember being freaked out by those pics of blood crying statues of Mary. One thing I have noticed it seems that in Holy Orthodoxy our Icons weep tears or myrrh but Catholic Statues it seems to be blood weird. It is just something I was thinking about anyone else notice this? As I am still a newbie Orthodox I may be wrong and there are blood crying icons out there too but I havent ran across them yet.
There are also reports of statues that cry tears. That being said, I don't put much stock in the stories of weeping statues. Can God perform these miracles? Yes, but I think its a much bigger miracle that the Holy Spirt transforms bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ every sunday at Mass.
