Why do the "Pilgrim Girls" have bloody knees?
- TomaszKlosinski 8y agoProbably from kneeing and praying outside a lot.
- anigbrowl 8y agoThere's certain Catholic pilgrimages where you're supposed to complete a journey on your knees, usually to commemorate someone's martyrdom. The 'Sancta Scala' in Rome is the most famous example but I can think off a bunch in different countries. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scala_Sancta https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scala_Sancta
