"It is important to note that the Shroud of Turin is a priceless artifact for the entire world, and not just a Catholic relic. It has been under the authority and in the custody of the Roman Catholic Church only since 1983!"
This is actually wrong. The Shroud has been under the
authority of the Catholic Church since its first exposition in 1352. It has been in and out of the church's
custody at various times since then. It has been owned by the church only since the death of its previous owner, the last King of Italy, Umberto II, on March 18, 1983, when the Shroud was bequeathed to the Holy See.
As for the rest of the article, I hold my opinion until I can see some evidence other than a press release.

Investigative researcher Philip E. Dayvault, of Raleigh, NC, found in 2003 that the famed Sistine Chapel Ceiling fresco, painted by Michelangelo in 1512 and located at the Vatican in Rome, Italy, is also painted in allegory. Pfft. Allegory. People like allegories because one can read into them whatever one wants to read into them. And then voila! with the right person "unlocking" the mystery it magically fits a predetermined pattern! Amazing!
This "research" has red flags all over it, and it seems solely designed to prove a point of dubious worth. It is the artistic version of the Bible Code.

This theorist apparently understands very little about the personalities, goals and beliefs of the two main players in the Sistine Chapel projects, Michaelangelo and Pope Julius II. If we begin at the beginning, there’s no way to get to this ending.
