Probably as reliable a "witness" as the 50,000 pieces of the cross that are scattered throughout Europe in RC churchs.

Huh? Are you a troll?

The mythology and legend of Catholic relics, teachings, etc. is extant. RC traditions such as Thomas witnessing in India, Peter being the first bishop of Rome or Antioch are without historical foundation. The thousands of so called relics have no historical provenance. The RC Church has no historical basis at all for these claims, either scriptural or through historical documentation. It is similar to Mariology, saint veneration, papal infallibility, etc. There is no scriptural evidence for any of this. This mythology is all built on the cornerstone of your doctrinal authority - tradition and apocryphal writings.
