Licking a dessicated skull? Who’s doing that?


Catholics have been known to kiss “holy relics” which often include severed body parts and assorted skulls and bones.

I assume some get overcome by their “love” of the “saint.” Several posters have claimed it isn’t woship but just a sign of love one might bestow on their spouse.

Okaaayyyy........

So they equate kissing dead body parts with kissing their spouse?

Such a target rich mentality but I'm going to pass on commenting on that.

Ok. Well I don’t think anyone’s licking any skull. Kissing perhaps but there’s a difference there.
