Dontcha know?

Absence of evidence is evidence of absence.

Lack of physical *proof* of Mary’s existence means they can claim anything they want about her demise or lack thereof.

Course, it doesn’t occur to them that any claimed relic just might be a fake or fraud.

Not to mention that true Christians don’t put any of their faith or trust in this physical world which is passing away since we walk by faith, not by sight.

Dead body parts along with other trinkets, doodads, and artifacts are all going to burn anyway. Nothing in this world is permanent or of value in the spiritual realm, the heavenlies in which we believers sit with Christ Jesus.

Having physical objects to see, touch, feel, kiss, use are talismans are for those whose faith is so weak that they need props.

....”Absence of evidence is evidence of absence....they can claim anything they want”......

Yes, rather like those who fill in “white spaces”.....in the Evangelical Community happening today as every impostor of Christianity fills these up with anything and everything that gives the “itchy ears” what they want in order to keep them engaged and the revenue flowing. We are soooo living in an age of deception today...and it's all leading to Rome for all the wrong reasons.
