In support of his contention, Kevin quotes Freemasonry historians Chris Knight and Robert Lomas and places the image as having been " inadvertently created when a Templar Knight was tortured and crucified during the early 1300's "


jc response:

I don't know IF the Turin Shroud is or is not what it is purported to be.

I know that Santosh Helekar is a scientist who will apply critical scientific reasoning to determine the veracity of reports, studies, etc

I don't know IF Kevin Saldanha is a scientist who will apply critical scientific reasoning to determine the veracity of reports, studies, etc

I also do NOT know IF Chris Knight and Robert Lomas are scientists.

So, I ask ...those who might know for sure ....HOW do you KNOW that th Shroud of Turn is a FAKE?


For those with general non-scientific minds like me, here is material for primary reading:

Turin shroud 'older than thought'

Tests in 1988 concluded the cloth was a medieval "hoax". The Shroud of Turin is MUCH OLDER than suggested by radiocarbon dating carried out in the 1980s, according to a new study in a PEER-REVIEWED journal.

good wishes
