Police do a reverse age regression to the Shroud of Turin image to see what Jesus Christ might have looked like as a young boy. . . if the Shroud is the visage of Crhist. . . I think I would have made the hair darker. . . Shroud of Turin Ping!

Shroud of Turin Regression Ping!

If you want on or off the Shroud of Turin Ping List, Freepmail me.

I challenge the members of the Shroud of Turin ping list to each donate at least $10 each to the latest Freepathon. I HAVE donated $100 due to my involvement on the Apple Ping List. Many members of the Apple Ping list are already rising to the challenge. Join them. Let's show the power of the Shroud Ping list in supporting Freerepublic!

. . I think I would have made the hair darker. . .

One of the letters linked in post 32 addresses the hair color, and that it may have been darker but appeared blond due to sun-bleaching. I have several friends who were blond as children and whose hair turned almost black as adults, but it bleaches blond after a summer of water sports, etc. Surely the Mediterranean sun would have been strong.

Also, if you have seen any photos of the Yazidi captives of ISIS, many of them are blond and blue-eyed, although they are middle-eastern. Many ancient Greeks and some Italians, such as the Abruzzese, also have blue eyes and blond or golden-reddish hair.

Now this is weird.

Would have expected a swarthy, Jewish looking chap. This looks like an artwork rendition of an angel face (yes, yes, real angels don’t look like this). Kid! Put down that hammer! Yer too delicate to be a carpenter!
