900-year-old saint's heart vanishes from cathedral - Polidicks

[QUOTE=DwarfOverlord;35018523]It's obvious where it's gone- the Dovahkiin has taken it to craft a Daedric sword to slay more dragons.[/QUOTE] oh MY [B]GOD[/B] the pope is a daedra this explains everything

[QUOTE=gamefreek76;35017690]Satanists are going to use it in an ancient summoning ritual to bring forth Baal and his demon army. The sky will rain molten lead, the seas will turn to blood.[/QUOTE] Damn, my plan has been discovered

[QUOTE=lapsus_;35018571]Damn, my plan has been discovered[/QUOTE] never said we would stop you sounds like a blast

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;35016417]If those were stolen by ~militant atheists~ who want to fight religion by being dicks the world is gonna flip all of its shit very fast.[/QUOTE] Why do you assume they are atheists?

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;35018773]Why do you assume they are atheists?[/QUOTE] okay ~militant satanists~

Wait. Died in 1180 and made a saint in 1225. How did they know he was going to be a saint. Or did they dug up his grave and take the heart?

Rapture happened Only thing worth saving

test it, discover its only 100 years old, it sparks an investigation and suddenly 2012. What a twist.

[QUOTE=Elecbullet;35016424]This is very sad, a religious artifact stolen. I hope it is returned.[/QUOTE] I see you are being all tolerant and shit, but I don't see any big deal here. I mean.. it is a big deal obviously, but it's also a heart (an actual organ?) stashed in some container for 900 years and it probably smells a lot so.. you could draw all kinda conclusions.

what kind of heartless person would do such a thing? wait...

Bet it was the Blood Ravens [video=youtube;SCRki6rs6U4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCRki6rs6U4[/video]

[QUOTE=Elecbullet;35016424]This is very sad, a religious artifact stolen. I hope it is returned.[/QUOTE] No it's actually the heart of a guy that died 900 years ago.

What sort of [I]heartless[/I] person could do that?

Did the cage or the box get stolen or did they pop the thing open to find it's empty? The latter would have been kinda predictable. Anyway, the thing must look like a fucking raisin by now. Who gives a fuck about a dried-up pice of flesh from some ancient kiddie-fiddler anyway? It's not like the thing is benifitial in any way or an important relict of human history. Pope was like 'yo, this shit be holy'

What the hell would someone need a rotten heart for?

Maybe the heart.. Rotted away? :eng101:

Oh no a rotting heart was stolen, what ever should we do??

Anyone else find this disgusting?

nobody's gonna buy it, so stealing it was useless

[QUOTE=Joyful Mystery;35017433]I think the idea behind it is that the holy power bestowed upon it has given it its ability to last this long. Of course I doubt anyone around here would take that explanation, so come up with your own ideas. Also, this sounds like the beginning of some historic thriller or a fantasy novel.[/QUOTE] "That saint's heart is a threat to the Catholic church because the Aztecs would cut out people's hearts and offer them to the Sun God that Jesus secretly is and also a woman"[/Dan Brown]

[QUOTE=mycheesecake;35022099]Anyone else find this disgusting?[/QUOTE] The though of keeping some dude's heart locked in some metal box for whatever reason sounds pretty disgusting

Could it not just have decomposed?

Sounds like the plot to an episode of Supernatural.

Even though it is not connected, it reminds me of Assassins Creed and the Templars. Sounds like something the Assassins would steal.

[QUOTE=sami-pso;35020981]No it's actually the heart of a guy that died 900 years ago.[/QUOTE] Well it's still very important to some people. I mean, think about it like the locket of a lost loved one - wouldn't you be sad if that went missing? This is just as important to them.

I guess you could say, the thieves don't really..........have a heart.

Actually, they should have two now.
