St John Vianney's Heart Visits USA

The Catholic fetish for dead body parts was seen in early October as the heart of St John Vianney (1786-1859), a French priest, toured churches in Long Island and Massachusetts.

The body of Vianney was exhumed in 1904, and discovered to be – VOILA! – "well preserved." (Ed note – I wonder how they knew to dig him up?) At the same time, the heart was cut out of the body. The heart supposedly is pink, with a little brownish color in the middle.

Comment – Why would anyone dig up a body 45 years after a person died? Outside of law enforcement purposes, this is something we only see in Voodoo, Frankenstein movies, and – the Roman Catholic Church!

The heart was flown to the USA in a velvet sack, escorted by French Bishop Guy Bagnard. The heart was then placed in a gold and velvet shrine when brought to the Long Island church. Thousands visited the heart, and knelt before it in prayer.

Father Jean-Paul Ruiz, a professor of theology at St. John's (New York) University, commenting on the visiting heart said:

"When we venerate the relics of saints, it puts us in touch with those persons who we believe are still alive beyond the death of their bodies."

Comment – According to this priest, after I die, I can wait for people to venerate my dead body parts, and then I'll make contact with them. This is wickedness!!

The bible says in Deuteronomy 18:11 NOT to be a necromancer (a contactor of the dead), and God warns necromancers in verse 12:

"For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee."

Question - What does the bible say about Catholics fascinated by dead body parts?

Answer – They are "An abomination unto the LORD."

May God give Catholics the grace to repent of this sin, forsake the Roman Church forever, and receive by faith ALONE Jesus Christ.
