Theyre not to "appear" anywhere before then. And......

Metal, you posted EXACTLY what I wanted to post. All these apparations, in my mind... are more coincidence that anything from the "divine".

I would say take apparitions and people who claim that "Mary" appears to them on X day of the month etc etc with a grain of salt.

It is like people praying to "Mary", which according to God's law, as I understand it, is not allowed. We should pray to God, and God only and not Idolize Mary, St. Joseph, St. Patrick etc etc etc.
