Wow. Nasty post. And I think you know by now that Catholics do not worship relics.

You’d hate Italy: my favorite relic was the tongue of a saint I came across in either Bologna or Assisi. Long time ago but it raised even my relic-accustomed eyes.

I was in no way nasty. It was an honest response to all this silliness about relics and remnants of Christianity being given such reverence. It detracts, even replaces for many, the true faith in Christ. We focus far to much on such triviality, taking our focus away from our faith and duty to Him who has saved us.

His Word is what sustains us. It is His Word that lives. Not these relics of the past.
