-Caveat Lector- Nor whether it is *human* blood. The "miracle" of San Gennaro's blood must be regarded as superstition, a living fossil surviving from the Middle Ages. No wonder the level of church attendance has been plummeting in Italy, if this is typical. - Original Message - From: "nessie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 21, 2000 1:23 PM Subject: Re: [CTRL] Fw: Naples Saint's Blood Liquefies, Citizens Relieved > -Caveat Lector- > > [EMAIL PROTECTED],Internet writes: > > > >Scientists have confirmed that the substance inside the closed vial is > >blood > > > > Note that Reuters tells us neither which scientists nor what tests they > are supposed to have used. > http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.

[CTRL] Fw: Naples Saint's Blood Liquefies, Citizens Relieved
-Caveat Lector- FYI, not necessarily representative of my own beliefs June - Original Message - Naples Saint's Blood Liquefies, Citizens Relieved Updated 8:12 AM ET September 20, 2000 NAPLES, Italy (Reuters) - The substance believed by many Neapolitans to be the dried blood of their city's patron, Saint Gennaro, liquefied right on schedule Tuesday. Clergymen held aloft the powdery substance in its glass vial as thousands of the faithful gathered in the southern city's cathedral, and after about an hour of prayers they displayed the vial again, its contents liquefied. The substance usually turns to liquid twice a year -- on September 19, the saint's feast day, and on the first Saturday in May. Some Neapolitans, traditionally very superstitious, fear disaster may strike the city if the blood of the fourth-century martyr does not turn to liquid. Disaster has struck at least five times after the blood failed to liquefy, including in November 1980 when some 3,000 people died in a massive earthquake that struck southern Italy. Scientists have confirmed that the substance inside the closed vial is blood but cannot explain why it regularly turns to liquid. http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
