A legendary story is there is a location noted to be the tomb of Mary.

It's so interesting to read all the fuss about Mary's purported tomb, as if that means anything at all.

When John Calvin died, he specified that he be buried in an unmarked grave so that no one would even be tempted to look for him there, or God forbid, to make his grave into any kind of earthly memorial.

Proud, presumptuous old coot!

LOL
