9 year old prodigy emerges from War Torn Lithuania

EnigmaEnigma Member UncommonPosts: 11,384

Check this out.  This child (Akiane Kramarik) wakes up one morning when she was 7 years old.  She claimed that God was speaking to her and told her mommy to buy her some paint brushes and canvas.  Pretty soon, this kid pops out paintings that would make a pro blush much less a child.

Various news stories visited her hom where there family is dirt poor and they have no television or radio whatsoever.  Anyways...check out the paintings she gets out of head:

lol, notice her age under her sig?

right now she is currently painting african scenes to raise money for AIDS awareness for many of the AIDs-torn countries

Pretty crazy talent huh?

    A Christian magazine helped her to raise some funds to paint more paintings and she did an overseas interview with the magazine staff as saying thank you.

    The weird thing is the pictures of Christ.  She has had no previous recolletion of any painting, movie, or picture of someone representing Jesus.  Her country was atheistic all the way up till she was born so there weren't many churches around.  She said that God told her to paint it and lol, she did.

    The amazing thing is that her family is dirt poor yet her paintings (the first one) sold for 10K (US dollars) and she only asks that the money go to Africa.

    Well, I do believe in God and in everything that is taught in His Word, and I can most assuredly tell you that this is ridiculous BS.

  • Sir-SvenSir-Sven Member Posts: 773

    I believe in God, his will and I think God could have given a little girl a great talent. It's happened in the past with people like Mozart. Why can't it happen now?

    I know God exists as well. But, you got to be on the lookout for hoaxes. This may be real. Just gotta make sure it is though.

    Well Im Athiest, and I think thats a very talented little girl.

    but they have shown that many people in the past who "heard voices from god" were usually suffereing from lead poisoning since the water pipes back then were made of lead.

    and when you are sick, ill, insane, you tend to see things differently, and tend to be good at art or other creative things.

    I dont think its a hoax.  She was featured on Oprah. lol, Im not a big Oprah fan nor do I htink everything that goes through her show is always legit but for the most part The Oprah show usually have serious topics and issues rather than the typical "Jerry Springer" scene.

    Also, this girl painted in front of a CNN crew to show them she wasn't hiring out a painter to help her.

    Mozart didn't wake up one day and start composing symphony pieces without ever looking at a note before.

    This entire story is ridiculous.  She was on Oprah, for Pete's sake!  If that doesn't prove it's invalidity, then I don't know what will.

     This story sounds rediculous. Some orphan girl starts painting jesus? Sounds like somebody is trying to start a money scam here.

    It's also strange how she can paint these masterpieces (which I doubt God would instruct her to paint anyway--isn't making an image of Jesus in violation of the second commandment?), and yet she has some problems painting her name and her age.  It even looks like she had to paint over it and do it again--if she even was the one who painted them.

    I hate it when people use the name of God for their own personal gain.  It's disgusting.
