Quote - 1000 years ago, people believed putting an onion on your head would cure a headache. Perhaps we shouldn't blindly believe everything our ancient ancestors said.   :)

The One who said that 'he without sin should cast the first stone' will still be alive long after our current bodies are dead and buried.  I think that makes him more of a living relative than an ancestor.  :D

As for your first sentence, I would think an onion would cause more of a headache with all the eye rubbing and crying it would cause.
