Corpse to tour with Pope in Australia.
A corpse of a man who has been dead since 1925, has being dug up and will be flown to Sydney to attend the Catholic World Youth Day in July. Apparently the Church believes that putting on display a dead person is just what they need to boost tickets sales among young people for the event.
The corpse in question used to be Pier Giorgio Frassati who was only 24 when he died from polio. Even in death he is considered a role model for many young Catholics becaue of his good looks, robust physique and sunny nature; plus he hasn’t had sex in at least 83 years.
