I could not use the original title, it was too long.

Wonder why they didn't recognize it as a patch in 1988.

Probably because the Shroud-fans didn't need the excuse yet.
To: blam
I would hope this would pave the way for performing another radioactive carbon dating test of the main cloth.
To: blam
So how old is it? I must have reading comprehension problems today; I can't find how old they now think it is.

Carbon-14 testing isn't very reliable if you ask me. I've never thought the shroud to be authentic.

The shroud question is a fascinating one...an argument is almost certain to break out whenever it's mentioned!

The science/facts/logic behind your response dazzle me. Are you a troll or just not used to FR yet?

I'll take one of those, with extra butter, please. Can I get you a cold one, while I'm up?

I was in Torino last year and went to the church where it is stored. Although you can only see pictures and copies and other memorabilia now, they have done a great job in the presentation, including a computer model of what the person in the shroud looked like.
Needless to say, I was quite moved and thought it was authentic despite the evidence from the Carbon dating test (which may now be questionsable).
I would encourage you to go and see for yourself....
To: Jaysun
Carbon-14 testing isn't very reliable if you ask me. It is, actually, when used on suitable samples. Unfortunately, a favorite trick of young-earth creationists is to use it on samples known to be inappropriate for 14C testing, and then use the (not surprisingly) invalid results as "proof" that radiocarbon dating is "inaccurate".

Wonder why they didn't recognize it as a patch in 1988.Perhaps they though that an older result would have been obtained.
Why not do radiocarbon dating on the part now claimed to be "old"?
