We have pieces of the cross, blood, shrouds, spear heads, chalices, thorny crowns and a host of other Holy Relics. Yet, what I can only presume to be the most prevalent Holy Relic, Jesus's poop, is not represented. At an average of 1lb per day, we're talking a very significant amount of Holy Poo. Surely some of it was gathered and fashioned into Holy Relics and yet I can find no reference to the Poo of Jesus every being collected.

Originally posted by Hand of HecateThe whole concept of such a thing as a holy relic is so much against the whole doctrine of Christianity that it has always amazed me how many Christians believe in them.

Originally posted by twhiteheadThis is a great point Twithead, but, everyone likes to have a souvenir which is essentially what relics are. I'm not proposing idol worship or anything like that, I'd just like a poo of Jesus key ring. Even poo of the Pope, set into an acrylic block, would make a great necklace, key ring or paperweight.

Surely the Vatican needs to be advised of the huge marketing engine they are neglecting. Poo of the Pope nick nacks will sell like hot cakes.
