NEW TOPIC: The Shroud of Turin.

I just wanted to get some of the "believers" take on this thing. Is it real? is the man depicted in it Jesus, and any other thought yall might have on it.

Research it.
It's real.

It's real.

I have done some researched on it, as well as watched a doc. about it on the History channel.

And besides the fact that carbon dating showed that the cloth itself was not from the same era as Jesus, it was much newer. I wanted others opinions on it.

actually that's old news, it was ripped at some point in time and repaired. The part that they cut, was newer from the repair, the rest dates back 2000 years ago, So the cloth is the real deal, the only thing debatable is,
"Was Jesus wrapped in this cloth."

I actually knew this as well, but wanted to see if anyone else had studied up on it. The story is that someone used cotton fibers to reweave the torn parts of the cloth, and then died them to match the original cloth. With that said, is it not reasonable to believe that since this cloth has been tampered with once that it may have been tampered with in other ways? Maybe the image itself is a hoax done by the same expert fabric worker that rewove it? Also if memory serves me correctly they tested a small amount of the blood from the cloth and found that it was in fact human, unfortunately even though it was human it was female not male.
