The pope comes to England this year going to make Cardinal Newman a saint. He was a big cheese in my moms church. They dug him up last year to make his remains into relics.
You can't be a saint unless you have your bits turned into relics to be worshiped. BUT there was a hitch!hock:
when the exhumed the grave there was nothing there! Apparently the ground flooded regularly and it had all washed away!!? So no remains. Wonder what they will do....
