    no, it's not the new movie with Indiana Jones but the crypt where the mortal remains of Padre Pio (very famous also in Ireland now) will rest.
    Here some pics O__O

    the crypt has been decorated with all the gold donated by the pilgrims in the last 20 years...

    I'm quite sure that you won't find this written anywhere in that crypt...
    "If thou wilt be perfect, go sell what thou hast, and give to the poor" (Matthew 19:16-21) ;-)

    Now there's something that can be melted down to help compensate some of victims of the Catholic Church.

    I heard The golden crypt was designed by Josef Fritzel, and has been constructed under Eyjafjallajokull Volcano in Iceland by a team of recently unemployed Polish builders using Joseph's Ratzingers stash of Nazi Gold.

    whatever people may say about the church I love looking at their creations, especially from a historical point of view. Most cities I visit include a visit to a cathedral and I'm dying to see the Vatican. Anyone who has a problem with that, then what about the renaissance.

    I'm an atheist btw and these are different times but lets not forget history
