You can’t find the veneration (in my post) because I didn’t include veneration.

No worries, mate.

What are you getting at?

So - wala - I’m sitting here wondering.

I like the hatchet story. In the future, I may use it myself.

Yeah - I get pretty frustrated with all the clowns who believe everyone who would rather not use the shroud to wrap fish, or as a drop cloth, or as kindling want to instead name their children Shroud of Turin and dance about it in a circle while sacrificing virgins to it. I knew you got the big picture.

"Then why did God in the old testament want the Ark of the Covenant made of gold?"

Because it was to be His -- and that is the way He wanted it. (And, of course, it was designed by Him to contain His Commandment against venerating "graven images" of our own making...)

"Besides, my post wasn’t a taking of sides, just an example of how misunderstandings occur."

I can see that -- now that you have explained further. My "veneration" remark was aimed more at the posted article...

Merely a tacit appreciation of your discourse — and a suggestion as to how avoid rendering it less effective...

Scholars first noticed that there was writing on the shroud in 1978 but when the radiocarbon tests a decade later suggested that the shroud was a forgery, historians lost interest in the script, Dr Frale said.

First I'm hearing about it!
