Status of St. Mark body exhumation?

Post by sergitoz »

Hello,

İts is my first post here, recently İ found this forum and im really glad theresa place where we can discuss about the life and after life of our dear Alex.

İ have a question to you regarding the status of the exhumation of the bod of St Mark. I have read the book and articles from Mr. Chugg and his theory is very interesting becase definetely theres a gap between the appearance of Alex and St Mark body that needs to be fullfilled.

I know that the church doesnt give the permission which is an absurd, but how is the status of it now?

İs there any official request in justice going on? İf yes, does anyone know when is the decision? This is the right of the world to know it...the church cant just say no and end like this...im pretty sure that the justie can interefer on this.

I appreciatte your attention

BEst regards

Sergio

Hi sergitoz. I would like to see the remains of "St. Mark" tested as well. But I seriously doubt the Catholic church will allow it. It's probably just an anonymous late medieval skeleton.

The problem is, I can't think of any reason for the law to get involved. After all, we are talking about the exhumation of a body, which is rather under the Church's jurisdiction. If the Catholic Church won't allow it, I can't see there being any way it would happen.
