Nice to see you're back, Randy.
And how would you go about proving these to be the bones of Saint Peter? Is there any kind of Peter DNA analysis I'm not aware of?
And no, I'm not looking up what John Evangelist Walsh wrote in 1982. That's a lot of water under the bridge since then. And the name hints at just a little bit of bias. There were up to 18 prepuces attributed to Jesus. So either Jesus had a prick to make an elephant proud or the whole relique business is just what it looks like - a lucrative way to rip people off.
