I choose to have respect for people's beliefs regardless of how silly they seem, so long as they are innocent. It's not like they are suggesting that the military be disbanded, or we assassinate the president of Venezuela (mayor of San Fransisco and Pat Robertson, respectively). Seeing religious figures in odd places isn't hurting anyone.
Besides, for all we know, that really could be the pope. No one can say that it isn't with any more verity than those who say it is. I personally enjoy a bit of mystery; it's definitely better than making bold statements that make me look intellectually arrogant.
It's also pretty cool that one showed up in a fire this time. Fire is definitely more awe-inspiring than a hamburger, or an oil slick.
