I heard about the holy prepuce on the radio and they said it had been stolen. They also said that some guy was looking for it and he was going to write a book about it. I thought it was a joke. So when I got home I did some research and found that not only was there a guy looking for it and writing a book. I actually found it on wikipedia. Read this story about the guy looking for holly prepuce and I copied the wikipedia definition below it. I think this is complete nuts but I'm only about half way through the bible and maybe that part is still to come. Or this is all just nuts. ( no pun intended)

circumcision of Christ
11th century Icon of Christ Pantocrator.
The Holy Prepuce, or Holy Foreskin (Latin præputium or prepucium) is one of several relics attributed to Jesus. At various points in history, a number of churches in Europe have claimed to possess it, sometimes at the same time. Various miraculous powers have been ascribed to it.

Is it normal to "save it"...?
I have daughters, so this is news to me. Things Remembered stores do not carry the little containers to save pee pee skin, just first tooth and hair locks...that I know of.
If they do make such a thing, I feel sorry for the next mommy-to-be that I know. Gift...check!

That's interesting that you write about this, because I sold the Holy Prepuce to this church in Harlem about a week ago. I can get around $40 bucks for it, so a whole bag of Jack Links Teriyaki usually gets me around $300.
It's risky work though, what with eternal damnation and all.
