 | | One story says that when Catherine of Valois was pregnant in 1421, her husband, King Henry V of England, sent for the Holy Prepuce. | | | The Holy Prepuce, or Holy Foreskin (Latin præputium) is one of several relics purported to be associated with Jesus. | | | In a 1997 television documentary for Channel 4, British journalist Miles Kington travelled to Italy in search of the Holy Foreskin, but was unable to find any remaining example. |

| | *Holy Prepuce - Dates from the middle ages when the Church was obsessed with Holy bones & relics of Saints and other famous Christians. | | | Okay, I had just recently run across the definition of "Holy Prepuce"* in regard to holy relics recently, but this... | | | Since Jesus's body disappeared in the tomb, and is considered to have transmogrified from the matieral to the holy, there can be no relics of his body to be found. |

| | Did Jesus Ever Sneeze? |
| | At one stage their were 14 copies of the Holy Prepuce (as it was known) scattered over Europe. | | | Since 1900 a person who speaks, writes, reads of the Holy Prepuce is a "tolerated infamous person", however the Holy See reserves the right of excommunication if you get to loud or smutty about it. | | | I can't answer whether JC ever sneezed, but I can confirm that a Sneeze of the Holy Ghost was once kept as an artifact by Catholicism. |

| | Bris - Jewish circumcision rite |
| | The Holy Prepuce was a relic unlike any other; According to Bryk (always), it was always the pre-occupation of the female sex and many visions of female saints were connected with this blessed relic. | | | It is that time of the year again and I thought that it might be of interest to communicate a certain curiosity revolving around the "Holy Prepuce", the severed foreskin of Jesus Christ. | | | Soon, the Holy Foreskin emerged in other places, so that finally more than 12 abbeys seemed to posses the relic!!: Typically, the relic was set in silver casing and was shown to pregnant women to relieve them of the worst discomforts they might have been subject to. |

| | Prepuce |
| | I mean, what the hell is the Holy Prepuce??? | | | The male prepuce is a multi-laminar structure composed of a squamous mucosa, lamina propria, dartos muscle, dermis and outer glabrous skin. | | | Normally, the prepuce of the newborn completely covers the glans and is adherent to the glans, so it cannot, and should not, be retracted. |

| | The Holy Prepuce, or Holy Foreskin (Latin præputium) is one of several relics purported to be associated with Jesus. | | | Apart from its physical importance as a relic, the Holy Foreskin is sometimes claimed to have appeared in a famous vision of Saint Catherine of Siena. | | | Calcata is worthy of special mention, as the reliquary containing the Holy Foreskin was paraded through the streets of this Italian village as recently as 1983 on the Feast of the Circumcision (marked by the Catholic church around the world on January 1 each year). |

| | None of the Catholic sources referred to mention the "Holy Prepuce" at all. | | | I couldn't find any reference to the Prepuce in the Catholic Encyclopedia at all, which is surprising and notable given that it is often quite expansive on many minor topics. | | | Note there is also mention of umbilici, or the Holy Umbilical Cord, being a relic, and this time there is at least one rather opaque quote regarding the umbilical cord in the Catholic Encyclopedia-- Solipsist 11:39, 6 Aug 2004 (UTC) |

| | biology - Leo Allatius |
| | In this essay he speculated that the Holy Prepuce (Foreskin) may have ascended into Heaven at the same time as Jesus himself and might have become the rings of Saturn (then-recently observed). | | | Of all his works, however, perhaps his most famous today is a minor essay De Praeputio Domini Nostri Jesu Christi Diatriba ("Discussion concerning the Prepuce of our Lord Jesus Christ"), which appears humorous to many modern readers. | | | In his later years he collected Greek and Syrian manuscripts to add to the late Pope Gregory XV's Eastern Library at the Vatican. |

| | Speaking of Circumcision |
| | With so many Holy Prepuces clamoring for respectability, the church fathers finally had to question the authenticity of them all. | | | A theological debate ensued: "Has Christ a foreskin in Heaven, or has He not?" Another debate followed: "Was the foreskin necessary or not?" A consensus emerged that the prepuce was no more necessary than the hair that had been cut from Jesus' head, or his nails or umbilical cord. | | | In the diocese of Chartres, France, in the abbey church of Coulombs was said to reside the relic of the foreskin of Jesus. |
