Do we really need relics to support our faith?

Amen.

What would it matter if someone found every shirt and shoe Jesus ever wore? They are nothing.

"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God." -- 1 Peter 1:18-21

Well said DR.E!

The resurrection is all the proof I need.

People forever have sought signs from heaven. Why do people believe in a shroud and not a rainbow as a sign from God? Or a better question, why do people venerate a shroud and not a rainbow?
