68. Many know the real story...
Scholars, Cardinals, Pope, Antiquity experts, anyone who has researched, etc...

The problem is so many religions today depend on believing the mythology to be fact that the truth could have a negative impact for many.

The positive aspects of religious communities in many places still outweigh the negative.(Sociologically)No need to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Many churches have organized(UU for example)without myth taught as fact and other sects have dropped absurd doctrinal requirements(some methodist churches)and I am sure others will adapt as well. Eventually, deism will replace theism. I hope/think the individual philosophies will survive...

As far as who the bones belong to...to most they will belong to whomever the Vatican says or infers they belong to.lol
