    If the church allowed DNA and carbon dating (which they won`t)
    They would find the contents were a body part from Seamus Murphy, brother of Paddy Murphy who hid under a piece of cloth in the rain to evade capture from Italian mafia members Gino & Giovanni Rossi.

    He was trampled by a horse and carriage.

    The cloth is now on display in Turin.:rolleyes:

    Relics like that were a "thing" in the medieval Church. It may well have started out as the saint's heart, but only the Lord knows what's in there now. It might be two marbles and Jimmy Hoffa's driver's license for all I'd know.
