The Shroud is a real linen cloth, dating back to the time of Christ, containing pollen from Jerusalem at the time of Christ and marked with the image of Christ using a process that defies scientific explanation.

The marks on the Shroud also match perfectly to the Sudarium of Olviedo, the facecloth that was placed on the face of Christ.

Anyone who has a regard for truth will agree that this is indeed the burial shroud of Christ.

Its authenticity appears to confound and threaten you. Why?

You don’t base your faith on it - why would you? But why are you so keen to deny that it is what it is? Why would a Christian deny truth?

In fact, I have (here on FR) explained my theory that the image on the cloth could correlate very well with the energy emission from a human body's surface -- at the instant of resurrection and transformation. (I did lengthy [successful] research on transferring micro-patterned materials from one surface to another -- using nothing but the energy from a near-istantaneous burst of light. It works -- with great fidelity of replication.)

My problem with the SoT is that -- so far --no competent group of scientific authorities have produced any reports actually tying it to the timeframe of the resurrection and transformation of Christ. There are interesting bits and pieces -- but there is a huge mountain of conflicting flummery and misinformation.

My problem with the premise of this thread is the imbecilic leap of "VOILA!" logic connecting those supposed magnetic anomalies in a piece of stone to the plausible effect (at the far, opposite end of the elecromagnetic energy spectrum) that could have involved sufficient, instant energy release to have formed the "flash-sublimation transfer" image on the shroud.

The statement in the article was one of (misplaced) faith multiplied by scientific ignorance -- NOT any evidence of scientific relationship -- much less correlation.

Bottom line: Stupid, ignorant, pseudoscientific article.
