Padre Pio, a humble Capuchin priest from San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy , was blessed by God in many wonderful and mysterious ways. The most dramatic was the stigmata. Padre Pio bore the wounds of Christ for fifty years!
Padre Pio, who died in 1968 at age 81, was a mystic monk who many Catholic faithful believe bore "stigmata," or wounds like those Jesus suffered at his crucifixion, on his hands and feet. He was made a saint in 2002
Church officials exhumed the body and they said there was no sign of the so-called stigmata on his limbs after an initial examination, and that the body was in good condition.

@sexyassbrowneyes nooo, we most certainly do know how to preserve bodies (look up Vladamir Lenin). Also, the face you see on Padre Pio is a silicone mask (his face suffered considerable deterioration) and his body was found to be "partially skeletal." Just puttin it out there...

He has on a thin silicon mask. Yet he is in remarkable shape. The people that "prepared" John Paul II also di with Padre Pio.

The Bible states in John 20:27 (HANDS NOT WRISTS) " Then said to Thomas, put your finger and behold MY HANDS" please read your Bibles. God Bless you all.

@greenpenone. Watch in quest of the truth on national geographic. It was shown that crucifiction thru the hands was possible but also more torturous because of the nerve that travels thru the palm.

567awsd you could say that about anything in history. You go buy evidence and first person accounts.

Was anybody here at Jesus' cruxifiction. I dont think so. So how do you kno where they put the nails?
