An Italian scientist says he has reproduced the Shroud of Turin, a feat that he says proves definitively that the linen some Christians revere as Jesus Christ's burial cloth is a medieval fake. Whatever he may have produced, his willingness to make such a statement defines him as something other than a scientist.

“Whatever he may have produced, his willingness to make such a statement defines him as something other than a scientist.”
Correct.
It merely shows that a fake was possible with technology of the time.
