As one wag put it, "If her body was not taken to Paradise or to Heaven, where's the corpse?" There is no chapel in Turkey or in Israel where the bones of the Theotokos are to be found. Soooooo, if her body was not taken from the earth, where are the relics???

Where is John the Baptist's and can you prove it's him? This is the dumbest reason to make up a doctrine about Mary that I've ever seen.

Interesting tagline. Do you agree that the entire notion of God is a house of cards built on Genesis 1:1?

Perhaps you didn't know that there are relics of John the Baptist?

Considering Mary was so highly venerated (HONORED!) by Christians, where are those relics? They have relics of other saints. What about Mary?

Regards
