Can belief leave a mark on the body?
In this episode of The Bizarre AF, we explore stigmata—the mysterious wounds said to mirror Christ’s crucifixion. From the divine visions of St. Francis of Assisi to the controversy around Padre Pio, we dive into the Catholic Church’s stance, the canonization process, and what Roman crucifixions really looked like.
We also explore modern psychology: how trauma and deep empathy can physically manifest through conditions like conversion disorder and mirror-touch synesthesia.
Is stigmata a miracle… or the body’s way of telling a sacred story?
