semen christianorum

Following recent themes of blasphemy and puerility, I was reading the Pope’s Last Will and Testament to see what he’d left me. I don’t think i’m going to get anything cos he left the Romans to divide his earthly possessions, leaving no specific instructions.

He then spent the rest of the document grumbling about the persecution of the church. Sanguis martyrum – semen christianorum, apparently. I know this is a famous phrase but i can’t quite place the translation, and in the meantime am left with a mental image that i am fairly certain would be blasphemous to share.
