Axum And The Holy Grail

[Paigntonian]

Mass violence in Ethiopia. Hundreds of authors claim the Holy Grail is held in a church in Axum, the epicentre of the Tigray uprising..One wonders if this might come up in the news. To stress, I'm not claiming any such thing. Just think would be interesting, to say the least, if rebels claimed they had captured the Holy Grail.

Don't tell Monty Python.

[Paigntonian]

Promise I won't.

[Zacs-Master]

Maybe they’ve already got one?

read someone has a foreskin, crackling perhaps

[Paigntonian]

I'm not saying there's a scintilla of truth about it. Just thought it would be an interesting story if the rebels claimed to have captured the Holy Grail.

I think you mean the Ark of the Covenant - not the Holy Grail.

[Paigntonian]

Naomi: You're quite right. Oops.

[fender62]

maybe it's an alien nuke in a box...geiger counter near it, personally
i dont believe in any of the bible myths.

[naomi24]

If it is there its capture by mindless morons would be a disaster in more ways than one.

[fender62]

some await armageddon with enthusiasm, end of all the beauty on this planet..but so worth it, rise from graves an that karp.

Where did the Ark of the Covenant end up?
I have heard some say that this place in Ethiopia has a strong claim to have it.
Would need to do some research myself before I could give an opionion.
I think one of the many news stories that's been buried by Covid
