Am I missing a joke here?

I doubt I mention motorcycles for at least three months.

Catholics have some weird superstitions.

Between this and parading 500 year old dead kids around the world in a glass casket, it's just...strange, to say the least.

Link or explanation? You can't just say something that whackadoo without some kind of clarification. I'm pretty damn curious now.

CHICAGO (WLS) -- Thousands of Catholics gathered to witness a first in Chicago. The relic of St. Maria Goretti, the youngest canonized saint, is on display at St. Cantius Church in the city's Goose Island neighborhood. A Chicago police motorcade escorted the relic to St. Cantius early Monday morning. The church is located at 825 North Carpenter Street in Chicago. The remains will be at the church for 24 hours. The visit is part of the Pilgrimage of Mercy, a 48-city tour. This is the first time the sacred remains have traveled to the U.S. and only the second time they have left Italy. Planning for the 55-day U.S. pilgrimage started a year and a half ago at the behest of Pope Francis. St. Maria Goretti has ties to the United States; three of her siblings emigrated to New Jersey and their descendants still live here.


Sorry, this body is only 114 years old...

Thanks for that. Wiki says she died in 1902 so a little less than 300 years but still weird as frick.

It says that she died from stab wounds that she got while being raped. She forgave her attacker on her deathbed and was canonized. Now her body makes world tours. Odd.

I believe the body actually came through Baton Rouge and/or New Orleans. I only know because the majority of my family are devout Catholics that went to see it.

Did they move Naples and forget to tell everyone?

I'm so confused.
