Is there anything, anything, that was made in the 1300s that we can't make today?

If that is the case, and I believe it is, why is it we can't figure out a way to reproduce the shroud? Is it because it's not a fake? No, that is just too much for the skeptics to fathom. And so they keep imagining dark rooms with Michelangelo and some knowledge of photography and evey with all that they still can't make something with all the qualities of the shroud. It's a great, wonderful relic.

It’s just Medieval forgery by a painter who knew how to paint on single fibers on two surfaces.

The 1988 carbon-dating test PROVED that!

Had not heard this before. Thanks. Wow.

My faith doesn’t put any store in relics and such, so whether it’s authentic or not, or supernatural or not, does not weigh all that heavily upon me.

But, it’s striking that the critics of the historical claims associated with the shroud are sounding less and less credible.

I guess the flip side of the coin is true as well: my faith is not threatened by the shroud being genuine, unlike certain materialists.

Science Dictionary

corona discharge  
"An electrical discharge characterized by a corona, occurring when one of two conducting surfaces (such as electrodes) of differing voltages has a pointed shape, resulting in a highly concentrated electric field at its tip that ionizes the air (or other gas) around it. Corona discharge can result in power loss in the transmission of electric power, and is used in photocopying machines and air-purification devices. See also electric arc."

 

 

Interesting, but I don't think Fanti and Maggiolo are breaking any new ground here. I remember a report years ago by some scientists who said that the shroud was scorched by an unidentified burst of energy, even giving a basic rundown on how that would have affected the shroud fibers. 

 

I had always wondered about Jesus's warning to Mary Magdalene in John 20:17 to not touch or to hold Him. When she recognized Jesus and got excited, the first thing He said was a warning not to "hold" or "touch" Him - possibly to keep Mary back due to it being dangerous for a mortal in the flesh to have physical contact with Him at that particular time for some reason? Others have interpreted the passage as a gentle command to a grieving Mary to not fret and try to prevent Him from leaving.

 

 

However it was done, the fact remains that something very unusual happened to that stretch of cloth.

This was reproduced on TV through an experiement.

The shroud is a FAKE.

Don’t buy into this.

It may well be what it appears to be.

However it must not be worshiped like some golden calf.

Ah, Leonardo....

[airborne]

I don’t need this relic, or anything else for that matter, to believe.

It’s called “faith” because you have to believe on faith, and nothing else.

IMHO...
