Thanks to both of you. I've always looked at the Shroud and the Sudarium Christi as mystical gifts left to us by our Lord, they humble me and fill me with awe (and shame and sadden me when I see His wounds), but neither are necessary for my belief in Him. I, selfishly, never looked at the Shroud or the Sudarium Christi as you both do - and you are right, they do have the ability to convert non-believers, as evidenced by your posts.

Thank you again.

Thanks, AC. Here is a link to a few of the paragraphs on the Holy Shroud re differences in the samples cut and the different sampoles weighed. The entire piece deserves reading notwithstanding the fact it was done by a group opposed to Vatican Two, The Pope etc
