Pope John Paul II’s blood stolen by Satanists?

The relic was last seen last Thursday

A vial containing the blood of Pope John Paul II stolen in Italy may have been taken by Satanists.
 
The relic, a piece of blood-soaked cloth kept inside a painted metal cross, was last seen in the San Pietro della Ienca church – in the Appenine mountains where the Polish pope used to hike and ski – last Thursday.

The Pope enjoyed hiking in the area from where the relic was stolen

As dozens of police officers with sniffer dogs searched for the relic, anti-occult groups linked the apparent theft to Satanists.

‘It’s possible that there could be Satanic sects behind the theft of the reliquary,’ said Giovanni Panunzio, the national coordinator of Osservatorio Antiplagio.

Around 50 police officers have joined the search

‘This period of the year is important in the Satanic calendar and culminates in the Satanic “new year” on February 1. This sort of sacrilege often take place at this time of the year. We hope that the stolen items are recovered as quickly as possible.’

John Paul, who died in 2005 and will be made a saint on April 27 during a Vatican ceremony, had celebrated Mass in the church.
