NO!
I’m 72 and went to Catholic Girl’s School my whole life. My 2 aunts were both Catholic nun.
What you are suggesting is BIZARRE!
There is a statue St Peter, in the Vatican, whose foot the faithful either kiss or touch. They’ve been doing it for centuries. The metal on the foot has been noticeably worn down. I wonder how many molecules of metal each kiss takes away.
It was an Anti catholic swipe classic free republic who me? Whadda say? It was just a question no really hateful
Remember when everyone went to Church to kiss the cross on Good Friday?
How about kissing the Bishop’s ring?
And the kissing of the relics of the Saints on their feastdays.
No licking, though, thank goodness!
