The only first class relic of Blessed John Paul II, a vial of blood, is beginning a five-month tour through Mexico, being welcomed with hope that the prayers of the Polish Pontiff can bring peace to the country plagued by drug violence.
COMMENT: Yeah. That should do the trick.
Hmmm, "vial of blood: if JP2 had a "time of the month", no wonder he wasn't interested in boys! >;-X
ReplyDeleteYou know, ever since this "vial of blood" information came to public attention, it's turned my stomach and I'm NOT the squeamish sort. There's just something really.... what word do I want here?.... perverse about it.
ReplyDeleteIt's yucky.
ReplyDeleteRoman Catholic "relic devotion" is indeed perverse, yucky and down right gruesome. There is no excuse for it.
