Amazing.
I get up this morning to find that my heartfelt comment lat night about remembering the central point of Christianity was completely misconstrued.
I didn’t say a thing about Catholics. I didn’t even think about Catholics. Nobody was “bashed” until some thin skins got irritated by their imaginations.
My point was a valid one, and I stand by it. I’ll go out on a limb and contend that anyone who argues with what I said needs to examine their heart and their faith. And by “faith,” I don’t mean the name on the sign at their church building.

Wonderful story. I have not seen the Lord but I have felt his touch and heard his voice in my heart.

The Catholic bashers have arrived. Thanks for that pithy comment and the charity in which it was delivered. I'm sure someone is as proud of you as you are of yourself.d00d, take a pill. There was *nothing* about Catholics in that remark - Nothing at all. We should see how charitable YOU are in your apology to Jedidah.
OTOH, if you'd like some bashing, I will be more than happy to oblige.

Lets worship the Savior, not souvenirs.Do you mean to insinuate that someone worships "souvenirs" (like, presumably, the Shroud)?
If so, who?

In an instant The LORD transformed me to a place that I could plainly see the face of Jesus. Glorious light was streaming from his face. The light was so beautiful because it was not just light but it was also pure love. This was many years ago and I shall never forget His beautiful face and often think about how someday I shall see it again.WOW! Thanks for that witness! "Someday" is soon.

I'm betting it originally ran Windows....which is why we found it at the bottom of the Aegean.

Thanks for the excellent fact-based commentary. It’s striking to see how superior your understanding of this topic is to that of the “professional journalist” who cobbled together this article.

While certain technologies may not be widespread in a given era, that alone does not preclude their existence.
Weaving patterns may not be typical of an era, but someone had to do it first, and often advancements are lost. (Damascus steel, for instance, (not pattern welded or simply layered steel) has yet to be reproduced.)
While certain fabrics can be ruled out as being from the era (synthetics, for instance), proving a pre-industrial revolution weaving pattern did not exist (at all, anywhere) at a certain date would be pretty tough, and opens the person making the determination to accusations of circular reasoning. (You can't simply date a pattern because it allegedly did not exist until a certain date, therefore it has to be after a certain date.)
There has to be other supporting evidence which would indicate that the material comes from a certain date, and in the instance of the shroud, exposed to fire, Carbon dating will just not be enough.
In the end, it becomes a matter of belief, not one of proof, at least until someone can demonstrate how medieval persons created the images in such a way that it fits the other evidence.
