Saints in Alters?

Fun fact:

From the 12 apostles, there were 16 burried in Germany during medieval times.

And 23 burried in France.

That`s because the catholic church could demand massive cashfunds from those who made a pilgremage to these places.

Capitalism creates saints bitches!!!

One of the reason why Luther started his reformation.

Nail (relic)

Relics that are claimed to be the Holy Nails with which Christ was crucified are objects of veneration among some Christians, i.e., among Catholics and the Eastern Orthodox.

Very little reliance can be placed upon the authenticity of the thirty or more holy nails which are still venerated, or which have been venerated until recent times, in such treasuries as that of Santa Croce in Rome, or those of Venice, Aachen, Escurial, Nuremberg, Prague, etc. Probably the majority began by professing to be facsimiles which had touched or contained filings from some other nail whose claim was more ancient. It is conceivable that imitations in this way may have come in a very brief space of time to be reputed originals.

Bolding mine

Well, a lot of faith is already required to be religious, why not just make the delusion that much more obvious? They could all be real, I mean, with god anything is possible, right?
