Evidence Mary Visited Us In Modern Times w/ Fr Spitzer | The Lila Rose Podcast E136

What are Marian Apparitions? Is there any historical or scientific evidence to support Mary appearing or are these incidents hoaxes? What impact did Mary’s alleged appearances have in history? In this episode, I sit down with philosopher Father Robert Spitzer to discuss all things Mary. In particular, we talk about the three most famous apparitions: Guadalupe, Fátima, and Lourdes. We discuss the incredible supernatural clues and evidence we have that can make these events so believable.
