There is a second piece of cloth that bears the same blood as the Shroud of Turin.

It has been at Oviedo, in Spain, and documented to have arrived there in the 6th Century.

The two pieces of cloth exist, and they both bear the same blood.
Few have heard of the Oviedo Cloth, but it is as real as the Shroud of Turin, and it is something of a "clincher", since it definitely predates the medieval period, and has the same man's blood on it as the Shroud.

"The two pieces of cloth exist, and they both bear the same blood."

Maybe they were from the same reinactment (public or private) and done with great realism. Mel Gibson wasn't the originator of passion plays.

Good heavens, there have been people in this modern age that have had themselves nailed to a cross and crucified. Didn't one die in the Phillipines or South America doing that? That's reinactment to the extreme.

I contend that it's nothing new now and probably wasn't new 150 yrs after Golgotha. And people are making money on it, when the real treasure is obeying the gospel (tagline).
