“”We have shown that is possible to reproduce something which has the same characteristics as the Shroud,” Luigi Garlaschelli..”
That’s it? That’s the world shattering announcement? “We discovered that something could be faked, therefore that proves that it was faked?” Ummmm, yeah right. I’ll bet this scientist also believes that of event B happened after event A then event A must have cuased event B.
The carbon date shows this is from late 1200s.
It’s been pretty well debunked as legit.
(And yes, I am a Christian. I just happen to think this artifact is a fake.)
Then check out the first line of the story; "An Italian scientist says he has reproduced the Shroud of Turin,.....".

Yes, for example: it's obvious that trees cause wind. You never see the wind blowing unless the trees are moving. QED!
Do I really need a little </s>?
