God can do anything... even really screw up

By defaithed - Posted on 04 July 2010

Two-headed calf

A farmer in Egypt is now the proud owner of a two-headed (or, judging by the photo, two-faced) calf. His explanation for the poor creature? It's a "divine miracle".

The miracle can't yet stand, as its legs are unusually weak and the head(s) too heavy. Yet so far, it is surviving. We can sympathize with the farmer's desire to nurture the calf and try to help it live. His stated motive, though, is purely a believer's one: He wants to keep the animal as a reminder that "God is able to do anything". 

Everything except prevent crippling birth defects, apparently.
