gre8 a Catholic church I was involved in started a Peace and Justice group, (thank you Father G) which first excited me. But then we were told that we can't work on any hot button, divisive issues, so not to upset some patrons of the church, to which I understand why. But I don't think I'm here to appease wealthy church patrons. I'm here to shine a light towards the injustices done to the marginalized, stigmatized, oppressed, tortured, and disenfranchised people in society. To perhaps simply deliver a message that God has heard the cry of the poor and hates not prisoners.(Psalm 69). I recently learned that our shared humanity and our brokenness from the traumas life can bring must be healed first, if we wish to attain a more peaceful world. 🌎🌿 Truth be told my heart feels frozen and numb lately. I need to heal my own trauma, so I could revive my soul.

Graham-Dixon achieves a real tour de force in this magnificent documentary. Approaching the subject of relics and reliquaries not only from the artistic standpoint but also the historical, cultural and religious contexts is no easy task. Less so when you are presenting it all in a 60 minute documentary. The subject in itself may not be very appealing, perhaps outright dated even for many practicing Catholics like myself. Having enjoyed this video, my interest and feeling for the "Treasures of Heaven" are now renewed to say the least. And yes, contemplation of death may evoke life and vice versa. Both christian and oriental traditions of wisdom have been aware of this for over two thousand years. Dr. Carl Jung would be pleased, I dare say. Thanks Paulus, AGD, BBC and why not, KZitem.

Good question.. the relics aren’t worshiped but are venerated.. because we believe they can heal. The early Christians believed the same thing.. and i just remembered this interesting scripture.. Luke 8:43-48 English 43 And there was a woman who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, and though she had spent all her living on physicians,[a] she could not be healed by anyone. 44 She came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment, and immediately her discharge of blood ceased. 45 And Jesus said, “Who was it that touched me?” When all denied it, Peter[b] said, “Master, the crowds surround you and are pressing in on you!” 46 But Jesus said, “Someone touched me, for I perceive that power has gone out from me.”

I actually find them more interesting/moving, as a non Christian. As someone brought up in a Protestant country now living in a Catholic one, whilst I get 'it' I find some of the stuff way OTT. Holy Week drives me nuts. Endless processions of painted Christ statues in ever increasing torture and pain, to be finally carried past, dead in a crystal coffin, that always makes me think of Snow White! Churches with High altars that remind me of fairground organs. I expect them to strike up 'Under the Double Eagle and the Virgin Mary figure to start playing the cymbals! From what I have seen of Orthodox art, it is much more humble and 'human' yet still stunning. I really would like to learn more about it

Why would you pray to anyone other than God almighty? Why would you ask somebody else to pray to God for you? The Bible says you can boldly go to the throne of grace. You don't need a priest you don't need other "saints" to pray for you you can pray for yourself directly to God. That's why the veil of the holy of holies was torn in two when Christ died on the cross, so that we could all have access to God directly. If I have a really big problem in a store, I want to go to the boss not the cashier. I will say however that this is a beautiful documentary.
