Incorruptibility Of Saints (Bodies Defying Decomposition After Death)- Opinions? by drshrewd: 12:23pm On Apr 27, 2013 |
According to wiki Incorruptibility is a Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox belief that supernatural (or Godly) intervention allows some human bodies (specifically saints) to avoid the normal process of decomposition after death as a sign of their holiness. Bodies that reportedly undergo little or no decomposition, or delayed decomposition, are sometimes referred to as incorrupt or incorruptible. Although covert embalming is sometimes invoked to explain the incorruptibility,[1] many instances remain largely unexplained. The incorruptibility may occur in the presence of factors that bolster decomposition, as in the cases of Catherine of Genoa, Julie Billiart or Francis Xavier. hahaha! pls they should try and add our own man thereoo Fr. Tansi. heard that the dude is partially intact. lol
