Bones of John The Baptist Possibly Discovered

[Holly3278]

A team of researchers believe a knuckle bone found buried beneath a Bulgarian church may belong to John the Baptist, the New Testament prophet who heralded the ministry of Jesus.
The archaeologists from Oxford University were surprised that the bones dated from the first century AD, the time of John’s life, and the DNA was consistent with a person of Near East heritage.

If and when the Vatican says it is so, then I’ll accept it.

But what that discovery will help with?

Exorcisms. The bones of a saint are considered relics, and relics are useful during exorcism.
