In God We Trust.

The Shadow Cross

"An atheist who was training for the olympics had been given special pool priveliges at the university he was attending. Late one night he was considering the arguments a religious friend had been confronting him with as he climbed the high-dive for a little late-night practice. He stood on the board and prepared for a backward flip when he noticed the shadow he was casting on the wall formed a perfect cross in the partially-lit room. Shaken, he sat down on the board to think. As he sat there a maintenance worker came into the pool area and turned on the rest of lights and the diver saw that the pool had been drained for maintenance." UrbanLegend.com

if you wrote 'true story' at the end of it you'd make every one have a spiritial moment

That's the thing, I have no clue if it is a true story or not. Some of the stories on the website are true and some aren't. The author kind of lets you decide.

I've heard that before - it's a powerful story. Except the one I heard had him on his knees praying when the maintenance man walked in (after seeing the cross).

But still - it's a lovely story, true or not.
