If you like your relics served up with an extra dose of creepy, have we got the exhibit for you! One-man traveling sideshow, Father Thomas Michelet, is bringing the bones of St. Mary Magdalene to the Big Apple. Oh the things her bones will see! Can't you just picture those two out on the town, snapping photos and seeing the sights? Hopefully there will be time for a Broadway show.
Upstate skeptic John Kuhner declares it very unlikely that the bones of a friend of The Jesus Christ will be in this traveling case. He says they likely won't "have much of anything to do with Mary of Magdala, but whosever they are, they’re probably from someone who never dreamed that her bones would end up on 65th Street and Lexington Avenue." The tibia (yes, it's just the tibia) will be at St. Vincent Ferrer on Monday.

That's quite a relic-carrier-thing.
Looks like a sweet tube amplifier.
They sell 'em at Walmart for $19.88.
That's almost as creepy as eating the flesh and drinking the blood of Christ.
Mary gets around.
i got her bone right here
lol. can ya use it for a bong?
This is BS. The "real" relics of Mary Magdalene are in a cave in La Sainte Baume in the south of France. Stupid Catholics don't even their own fucking religion.
^know
Aside from the other creepy aspects and questionable provenance, my question is:
What happened to the distal part of her tibia?
Did they cut her up (sawing thru the tibial shaft) and is the rest of her making a tour elsewhere?
It's not her tibia. It's HALF her tibia. The half nearer the ankle appears to be missing.
That half of her tibia is on tour in Asia. In these hard economic times, scalability is key.
I should take my Madonna pap smear out on tour.
Good luck, I heard it was lost after World War One.
The gullibility of Americans is sometimes beyond belief.
You don't think there are religious relics and the remains of dead saints all over Europe?
Wait, could this be a tie in with Dan Brown's new book.
This is similar to the Virgin Mary water stain that appeared in the back of Patty's Pub.
whatever happened to Rest in Peace?
Travel in Pieces?
Oy vey!
Haha. I love these fake Medieval-era relics. Even if they are creepy as fuck.
