What Is the Stigmata?

The stigmata is a worldwide phenomenon that has happened over hundreds of years. A particularly devout person will sometimes experience the wounds of christ, like the nails and crowns of crown of thorns. There are cases where somebody's just making this up, and there are cases where it's not really clear. And i would say that marianne van hoof its not really clear, but she did claim to experience a stigmata for a significant period of time,. probably a couple of years.
