Looks like Jesus to me. Are there any other photos we can compare it to? :-)
I’m convinced it is the face of Christ, imprinted for us to have one more sign of God’s incarnation among us.
“Jesus therefore said to him, ‘Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.’” (John (RSV) 4:48)
“For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles,” (1Corinthians (RSV) 1:22-23)
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
This seems to be a report on an original article posted before:

I’d suggest making comments at the original post.
yes, actually there is
It is called the Selennium (or something similar in spelling) and it said to be the cloth used to wipe his face that left an image
Negatives:
No, but I think there are several pieces of toast you can compare it to. ;-)
Didn’t a guy by the name of Douglas Wilson show a couple of years ago how the shroud could have been a made? I think he was a pastor or something in Idaho at the time.
Suderium, I think
Merry CHRISTmas, all.
IMMANUEL.
Veronica’s Veil, The Veil of Veronica, or Sudarium (Latin for sweat-cloth).
As Jesus carried his cross, he paused and wiped his face on Veronica’s Veil, and His image was imprinted on it.
It’s two week’s ago ~ nothing wrong with creating a new thread now and discussing the same material here.
BTW, thanks for referencing the original ~ I missed it.
There will always be believers and disbelievers.
Just as there will always be Truthers that believe 911 was faked.
I have Faith that the cloth is real.That Jesus Christ was the son of God and that Mary was virgin.
If others do not have Faith, that is their problem.
looks like anyone can go see this veil
