I mentioned on this thread that the 12 Apostles are all buried in Catholic churches, usually cathedrals or basilicas.

You're making a HUGE presumption with this statement.

This would not be unexpected, since there was little separation between Roman control of governments... and occasional the theft.

This claim cannot be verified. It is simply an assertion. 23 and Me won't help.

And even more importantly, it has the sum total of meaning nothing. The correct answer is, so?

God's churches are identified by knowing Him and preaching the Gospel of Grace.

They are not identified by the bodies buried below.

In fact, I think Christ addressed this...

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which on the outside appear beautiful, but inside they are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness."

-Jesus
