Catholics have this fetish with bodies that don't rot after death.

Incorruptibles they call them.

They see this as further proof of the truthfulness Catholic faith.

I'd say all the proof we need is in Christ's words:

Blessed are ye when they shall revile you, and persecute you, and speak all that is evil against you, untruly, for my sake. Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is very great in heaven. For so they persecuted the prophets that were before you.

Another unscriptural teaching.

And what the heck? Catholics are the ones who say *From dust you are to dust you shall return* when you get ashes on Ash Wednesday.

Me?

I’d rather this body rot. I want the new one. I’ll trade corruptible for incorruptible any day of the week.

They can keep their old bodies.

"Catholics have this fetish with bodies that don't rot after death."

What do you think a "fetish" is?
