I did not know this
People have actually claimed to have Jesus’ foreskin? And it’s called the Holy Prepuce (Holy Foreskin)?
Isn’t that a bit much?
Wait, there’s more:
Apart from its physical importance as a relic, the Holy Foreskin appeared in a famous vision of Saint Catherine of Siena. In the vision, Jesus mystically marries her, and his amputated foreskin is given to her as a wedding ring.

I was tempted to write a joke about having Jesus’ foreskin made into a handbag, but fortunately the better angels of my nature made me avoid that particular form of blasphemy (I know, I’m only making it worse for myself …)
Chuck Palahniuk mentioned a Holy Foreskin in “Choke,” but I never actually thought it was real [sic]. Yikes!
Holy Foreskin, Batman!
