There are three possibilities:

I. This is a miracle, and God's water is trickling from this tree. It has all the healing abilities of Lourdes, France, and is on a par with every relic venerated by the Roman Catholic Church, and every visage of Christ seen in every screen door, highway underpass, and grilled cheese sandwich around the world.

B. There is a perfectly natural explanation, such as spring, snowmelt, etc. I'm just wondering why there is no report of anyone analyzing the water and discovering if it's groundwater, treated drinking water, or something else entirely.

3. It's a complete hoax, perpetrated by someone looking for their fifteen minutes of fame. As such, it has all the healing abilities of Lourdes, France, and is on a par with every relic venerated by the Roman Catholic Church, and every visage of Christ seen in every screen door, highway underpass, and grilled cheese sandwich around the world.


4. The beer volcano produced too much liquid and His Noodly Appendage decided, in its infinte wisdom, to route the excess through the oak (to save the stripper factory)! Ramen!

Why do people always assume it is the work of God if they can't understand how it works? If it goes on like that... soon we'll have the holy microwave, the divine internet...
