To the girl who asked "Are you ok?"...
I'm fine, but the movie stigmata is on and that is a big part in the beginning. I know these claims and aparition claims happen all the time, but I was just wondering if there were confirmed and unexplained reports of it happening. Am I okay? Not sure why you ask, I just asked what I thought was an interesting question.

it depends on the personal beliefs of the person studying it

No. There are many "miracles" recounted, but none which have been passed by a majority of the scientific community.
Statues can appear to be crying however: when it rains, the water that lands on a statue will flow down (gravity), however as cheek-bones are further out than eye hollows, trace substances in the rain (smog, etc) will be left in black or white trails down the statue's face in the same lines as tears would fall.

yes. many statues were seen to bleed in varied locations especially in cities or countries heavily populated by catholics. it is the parish priest who normally begins the process of examination of such a claim, but the catholic bishop assumes greater responsibility in the process at an early time if the priest thinks it should be investigated further. true cases are eventuallyinvestigated by a special board of investigation which I think eventually has the potential of a claim of being miraculous but it takes several years to be so called by the church itself. a catholic priest can be a better source for any additional information on such claims. one such claim was the statue of the virgin of guadlupe bleeding but I'm not quoite sure if that was a legitimate claim or not. on this I may even have the wrong miracle attached to the claim of that particular statue.

I suppose the driving question would be, "confirmed" by whom? There are numerous incidents of these type of manifestations being confirmed by those predisposed to believe in them in the first place.

Like the picture of Mary with scissors in her eyes and bleeding?
yeah right.
I did see a statute in a swimming pool, water was coming out, but it wasn't crying.
