From what I've looked up on this, the actual views of the Catholic Church on relics is a bit fuzzier than that. Certainly many famous churches feature relics as drawing cards, without having them accused of "sacrilege." Maybe the problem is buying and selling them.

Considering the amount of items a recent Pope must have interacted with, the amount of relics could be astounding.
