Adrian Kwinter reports that images of Jesus have turned up in jam sponges, marble cake and cheese and onion crisps.

Now, Jesus has appeared in a cloud over Worthing.

Russ Bravo, editor of The Christian Herald, said he was "absolutely amazed" by the image, which was, he added, was "very clear" and complete with a crown of thorns.

As to whether the image is confirmation of the existence of God, Mr Bravo says, "people can draw their own conclusions".

Quite so. And we can safely conclude gullibility is a characteristic of those who see Jesus in a cloud over Worthing or in a jam sponge.
