St Bernadette was born Bernadette Soubirous in Lourdes, France. From February to July 1858, she reported eighteen apparitions of “a Lady.” Despite initial skepticism from the Roman Catholic Church, these claims were eventually declared to be worthy of belief after a canonical investigation.

sebagai bahan pertimbangan:
Beberapa argumen yang bisa diajukan untuk para skeptis
*)Asumsi skeptis pertama:
Situsasi alamiah (bukan supranatural) kuburan yang mendukung peristiwa Incorrupted bodies
Pembuktian yang harus mereka lakukan:
1. mayat St Bernadette haruslah tidak mengalami oksidasi --->[url]http://www.catholicpilgrims.com/lourdes/[/url]... sebaliknya: Rosario St Bernadete teroksidasi ---> situasi semacam ini sudah seharusnya membusukkan jasad St. Bernadette tetapi ternyata Jasad bernadette tidak membusuk.
2. Survei jasad2 lain di daerah pemakaman yang sama, Jika benar Incorrupted bodies dikarenakan peristiwa alamiah, maka jasad lainpun di daerah yang sama seharusnya mengalami Incorrupted bodies
*)Opini Skeptis yang kedua:
pelilinan
Pembuktian yang harus mereka lakukan:
1. Bagian yang tidak dililin harus mengalami corruption Bodies, maka asumsi mereka dibenarkan bahwa incorruption bodies terjadi hanya karena pelilinan.
Tapi sayang sekali, bagian yang tidak dililinpun tetap utuh, bagian ini tidak dapat disangkal para skeptis
contoh jelas adalah John Vianney([url]http://home.gwi.net/~thefinns/patrick/ar[/url]... ) yang dililin hanya wajahnya, bagian lain tidak. Toh yang tidak membusuk bukan cuma wajahnya, bagian lain juga "ikut awet"
Disamping itu jantungnya juga mengalami Incorruption...[url]http://www.smwa.org/documents/Heart_St_J[/url]...
Bagian lain yang tidak membusuk adalah organ dalam, ini penting sebab pengawetan buatan benar2 berhasil hanya kalau organ dalamnya dikosongkan, jika tidak maka bagian organ dalam akan hancur dan tubuh mereka seharusnya mengempis, dan dari mata hidung serta mulut mengeluarkan berbagai cairan sehingga lilinpun bisa rusak. Maka untuk mensukseskan pengawetan buatan, bagian organ dalam harus dikeluarkan (Mummy) tetapi kita bisa lihat sendiri bagaimana berbedanya kondisi Mummy dengan Para Kudus
Hal inipun tidak bisa dijawab skeptis
2. Lilin yang digunakan haruslah memang berfungsi sebagai pengawetan. Sejauh yang aku baca, pelilinan lebih dimaksudkan untuk tata rias Jasad, bukannya untuk mengawetkan. Karenanya, pelilinan agaknya tidak bisa mengawetkan jasad, hanya saja sebagai kosmetik, hanya saja lilin sifatnya awet sehingga para Kudus tidak perlu di permak terus menerus. artinya sekalipun lilin sifatnya sangat lama, apabila tubuh tidak diberi karunia Incorrupted bodies, tubuh tetap akan merusak
maka mereka harus melakukan percobaan dengan jenis lilin yang sama atas jasad lain selama 10 tahun saja dan kemudian dilihat bagaimana hasilnya apakah sebanding dengan para Kudus.
Anehnya pembuktian ini tidak dilakukan oleh Skeptis
Hal yang tidak diperhatikan oleh skeptis
Mereka lupa kalau ada beberapa fenomena Jasad Para Kudus bukan cuma tidak membusuk, tetapi masih ada fenomena lain: mereka mengeluarkan bau harum ataus etidak-tidaknya tidak mengeluarkan bau busuk. keharuman di sana bukan keharuman yang bisa ditemui di dunia ini, karena itu diberi nama "Keharuman surgawi"
Kalau skeptis berasumsi itu adalah keharuman buatan, maka mereka harus membuat/ menemukan parfum/ wewangian yang sama , jika sudah ditemukan (kalau memang ketemu) mereka harus bisa menunjukkan zat kimia pembentuk wewangian itu juga ditemukan di tubuhnya
hal ini masih gagal dilakukan para skeptik
