After reading through this article there is really nothing to say. When a religion chooses to make up their own rules and regulations about certain beliefs with regards to inventing the idea that certain objects have spiritual significance and healing powers, and people are willing to believe it, there is not a lot that can be done to bring them to their senses. The fact is that such practices are classified in the Bible as absolute idolatry and are considered to be an abomination.
 
October 20 - Priest bringing relics to shrine invites ill to seek healing

Article: Roman Catholic Church And The Last Days

The Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe will host a Sacred Relics Exposition at 1 p.m. Saturday, with the priest the Vatican has entrusted to teach about sacred relics issuing a special invitation to people with illnesses to attend for the potential to be healed. “The sick are especially the people I want to come,” the Rev. Carlos Martins said in a phone interview Wednesday from one of his headquarters in Houston, Texas. Martins, a member of the order of the Companions of the Cross, plans to bring more than 150 relics, including holy items of St. Maria Goretti, St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Anthony of Padua, St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Faustina Kowalska, among others to the shrine on La Crosse’s far south end.

 

The Catholic Church uses an elaborate process to declare items with a direct association to Jesus Christ or the saints as relics, which generally are divided into three classes:
First class — The body or fragments of the body of a saint, such as pieces of bone or flesh.
Second class — Something that a saint owned, such as a shirt or book (or fragments of those items).
Third class — Items that a saint touched or that have been touched to a first, second or another third class relic of a saint.
In the Catholic Church’s history, many miracles and healings have been attributed to the presence of such objects.
