I never accepted TSoT because it was a perfectly folded, perfect image of a man that was not hastily entombed (as per the scriptures) but carefully placed, centered and no evidence of a round body that would have imprinted wider than the perfect image of a man.

It's a weird trap to believe in TSOT, but ultimately the Scriptures cast too much doubt on it.

Also, God commands us from having idols of any kind, and I suppose you could qualify the Shroud as an idol/image that could induce one to worship.

It’s a 3D image that was burned into the shroud the moment Christ arose from His “death”.

To this day, technology has not been able to duplicate.

Which is a perfectly reasonable explanation...

Until analysis of the shroud can’t explain the image with man made means.

It’s the stuff, herbs and spices, packed around the body that kept the cloth from draping around it. That was experimented with using a hundred weight of such materials packed around a body and it does indeed prevent the cloth from following the contours of the body.
