John the Baptist Finger:
I know what you are thinking, I said the same thing. The was take this past summer at the Nelson Atkins Museum in Kansas City. What this is suppose to be is a golden reliquaries. A reliquary is a container for relics or objects of religious veneration. In the center you will see a bone standing end on end. This bone is said to be the finger of Saint John the Baptist. I have no idea how they came upon getting this. In fact I really don't want to know. So we'll just keep this under our hats okay. I think what just fascinates me about this is the fact that, whether it is or not, it is just more than a mind full to think that this finger just might have touched the head of Jesus.
Peace out...later on.
