So, this happened. Lol

"It contains key information about the period and details on popular pastimes, the economic situation, political and religious matters, famous people and other topics."
Translation: The year is 1703. Our most popular boy band is Boyz for JeZus. The new snack called "pizza" has just been invented. Our monastery gives it two rosaries down. Can't imagine a flat-bread baked with some crap on top is going to be at all popular with teenagers in the future. Oh, our politicians are selfish, lecherous and incompetent a-holes (pun intended). I hope things are far better improved in the future.

Ugh. So what does it say?
Trouble with the link? Sorry. This is the title:
This 300 Year-Old Note Was Found Inside The Butt of a Jesus Statue
So it is essentially a time capsule from the 1700's. Google the title if you want more detail.
@BeeHappy LOL! No. I was wondering what the NOTE that was found inside the Butt of Jesus actually said.. There was no translation.... Doesn't anyone else want to know what the note actually said? I mean it was found in the butt of a jesus statute!
@KenChang Lol, I don't know. They only gave a general description of the content. I'm sure it's in a foreign language. Would probably have to do some digging to find out.
Things like that are so cool. 15 or so years ago a truck loaf of mummified animals was being moved in Egypt (they are quite common and owned by many collectors and even neo collectors) and one fell, broke open, and revealed it had been stuffed with papyrus books, or parts of books, some thought lost to the ravages of time.
Wow!
Wow, that might never have been found.
Yeah. Interesting story but love the title. ?
