American icon? Oil smudge makes $1,525 on Ebay.

An American family just sold the stain on the floor of their garage for more than $1500. This may or may not be a sign from God.
According to the The Associated Press, the stain looks like Jesus Christ. To many, it looks like a stain.

After noticing some driveway sealant on the floor of their home garage, the Forest, Virginia family snapped a photo and chucked it onto the world's most popular auction site. A week later, another Virginia resident paid $1,525.69 for the sealant smudge - and the hunk of concrete beneath it.

The seller thinks it's a smudge, not a miracle. "There are some people who need this kind of thing to sort of start them on their faith journey. I don't," said the practicing Lutheran. "That's why I don't mind parting with it."
