When my girlfriend and I were in Jerez last summer we stumbled across a vial of JP2's blood in the cathedral there. You know, this whole fascination with relics (parts of long dead people, mostly) is weird enough as it is, but we were wondering how such a relatively new relic came to be in the first place.
Did JP2 just cut himself? "Here you go, have some blood in a vial. There's plenty more where that came from."
Did he trip and fall, scrape his elbows and just bled a little of that somewhere and people gathered it?
Did they just take a syringe full for some church or other every time he went for a medical check?
Weird as all fuck, if you ask me.
