Should be nothing there but bones...Then what happens???
Part of the reason for the exhumation, he said, is to ensure proper preservation of those remains.
Seems a little late for that...How do you preserve rotted flesh???
Many saints are incorrupt - i.e., their flesh has not rotted for the centuries they've been dead. The eyelids of St. Bernadette are still moistened, for example. And forensic discovery found that her organs were totally intact despite some mild molding on her skin (i.e., she was not mummified - she was exposed to oxygen in her tomb)
That doesn't guarantee that St. Pio is incorrupt, but it wouldn't surprise me if he is. It's not about St. Pio, but God's will, should He choose to perform this miracle through His faithful servant.

The remains can still be venerated and/or relics collected.
Frankly, I'm much more interested in what will happen when the body of St. Paul is exhumed - which was being planned as of last year, if I'm not mistaken.
