Looks like atheists have found another piece of evidence to avoid.

I know this is asking a lot, but use your head.
Do you think, after the last set of tests failing
to make the shroud old enough, that the
Vatican secretly picked this new testing lab
for its objectivity?

I don't understand what the attraction is regarding the Shroud of Turin.

Do Christians need some physical proof to reinforce their faith?

Would an atheist become a believer if somehow this cloth was proven to come for the time of Christ? It still wouldn't prove that it was the image of Christ.

I think the whole notion of the Shroud of Turin being the image of Christ is unprovable and completely meaningless to the beleiver and the unbeleiver.
