Apparently not enough know that. I used to think it was a fake, but now that you said "goddidit" - I BELIEVE!! :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy




I just wanted to add that arguing about whether the shroud in question was like that in the NT is the exact same thing as arguing how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

Mountain man, You're right. It doesn't really matter how much you argue whether the turin shroud can be reconciled with the NT because fundies will always argue that 'Goddidit'. If they can argue with a straight face that the bible is inerrant when it clearly is full of contradictions then a little thing like the turin shroud not squaring with the NT isn't going to stop them so we might as well just laugh at them for being so stupid.

We could, but the sad part is that we are outnumbered.
