What “science” is it that studies whether things have something to do with Jesus or not? “Something-to-do-with-Jesus-ology”?
That bogus 1988 carbon-dating has been declared, at least 10,000 times, to “prove” that the Shroud is a “painting,” a “Medieval forgery,” and other things that have been shown fifty different ways the Shroud cannot possibly be.
It’s called “intellectual dishonesty.” It’s a common trait among people who are shacked-up, committing sodomy, etc., and don’t want to think about Jesus.
The 1988 C-14 Carbon Dating did nothing of the kind. It accurately dated a sample that unfortunately broke the agreed to protocols so that what was dated was not guaranteed to be what they THOUGHT they were dating. Instead of dating a sample of the Shroud of Turin, they dated a sample that was a mixture of original Shroud of Turin material PLUS seventeenth Century Cotton that had been woven into the original threads to patch a worn section. The amount of cotton that was added, at least 40%-60% by weight of much newer carbon, was enough to skew the dating by over a thousand years. The C-14 date of 1350 AD that was announced by the team who dated the Shroud sample has been falsified by this finding.
