...when we really need him?

Pleased to see the Shroud of Turin completely dismissed as a Medieval forgery.

Then there's the Holy Lance, so many out there. Maybe Indy can find the "true" one!

I'm hoping someone finally locates the basinet that held the baby Hercules. Come on, guys--let's find this stuff in "historical" order.

I went to Valencia a couple of years ago and wasn't I surprised to find the Holy Grail on display in the Cathedral there.

�Holy Lance�? Is that the Spear of Destiny?

Ha, classic!

There's also the Holy Spear and The Lance of Longinus depending on where you take your pilgrimage to see this "one and only" relic.

One of the more frustrating moments of my life came when a group of my fellow students at Art College �discovered� the Shroud of Turin. They were completely swept up in the �miracle��even when I pointed out that the image was clearly that of a STANDING figure, and that JC would have had to have been a gorilla to cross his arms like that and have his hands cover his naughty bits.

With the Holy Hand Grenade gone, I wonder if the pin carries any divine power?

I thought the Shroud of Turin was dismissed as a fake when they did a carbon dating test about a decade ago? So why say its a fake now because of examining the bloodstains?
