Then QUIT asking for answers since your ONLY purpose in asking them is to act like a skunk at a picnic. You are a troll. You are a thief of our time and efforts since you enter these threads, at your own admission only for the purpose of wasting them and obfuscating the issues. Your sole purpose is to irritate other Freepers. You are a quintessential troll. It must be very sad to be you.
You are not "skeptical," you are certain in your certainty. You refuse to consider the evidence, refusing to even consider it.
Consider this: the Dead Sea Scrolls have even less evidence for their existence in history than does the Shroud. . . and FAR less scientific examination. With that comment, I am done with you.

This is a skeptics thread, judging by the title, “Shroud of Turin is a fake.” My contributions belong here. You and your ilk are the contentious wastrels on this thread. And the Scrolls? The vast majority of ‘em were discovered, protected, preserved, and cataloged by scholars and historians, while the shroud was, for over a century, the main attraction in a cathedral’s periodic fundraising bazaar.
