I love how seriously Catholics took their fanfic to the point that they have Saints based solely on myth and "cool story bro" scenarios
You will be shocked but absolutely everything in Catholicism is based on myth and "cool story bro" scenarios.
I guess it was like doing Instagram pranks without the internet. "Yoooo, an angel just totally appeared to me" just to get attention back in that days when everyone was bored as fuck. If someone believes your bullshit, and writes it down and hides it for a thousand years, suddenly it's a religious fact
Man, I don't think there are real bones inside boners. You're full of shit. Besides, didn't the dude get reincarnated? What, did he forget that bone?
2000 years later, the plaque on a gilded chest reads "The Sacred Bone of the Boner"
Dude it says it right there on the plaque, who are you gonna believe, some dumb old science teacher or the Pope
I read somewhere about some secret tooth cherished by some sect that was destroyed by grinding it to dust, mixing with shit and throwing in to the ocean. But guess what? Some fishermen said that he totally found the tooth restored floating on a leaf next to the place where they threw it out. You can't fight believes with real world methods.
