You can check the pathology report on it:
"There are the definite images of a traumatic scourging on the back, chest and legs. The triple pattern of dumbbell shape wounds appear to have been made with a Roman flagrum. There are as many as 120 such wounds and it appears that the blows were delivered from both sides and at somewhat different heights, perhaps by two men." http://www.shroudstory.com/forensics.htm http://www.gizapyramid.com/LECTURE-SHROUD2.htm |

You keep calling it a forgery, but if it is not real, it is still a masterpeice, it is still a historic relic and a highly detailed work of art.
If it is a forgery, they sure did a good job on it, even to use dirt that could only have come from isreal.
"There is dirt on the knees, on the tip of the nose, and on the feet. This dirt contains travertine aragonite limestone found in Israel, likely only found in this part of the world." http://www.shroudstory.com/forensics.htm |

Here is a summary of the conclusions found by the Shroud of Turin Research Project (STURP) in 1981. http://www.shroud.com/78conclu.htm |

I believe there are some Painting forgeries that are worth almost as much as the original because of their story and their age, etc.

I read that there were at least 40 different shrouds. At this point in time, the shroud of turin is the only one anyone takes serious. Science has not been able to prove it to be a fake or forgery. |

Reps: 5,365 (power: 27) | | | It was already shown to be a forgery/fake as you can see from Frumious Bandersnatch post.
One thing to note, is that the same dating method used to date it as a fake, dated other things such as the dead sea scrolls to their correct time, showing that they were fakes as some suggested.

There are people who feel that it is a fake. But I was refering to the offical position of the scientists who studied the shroud. The majority opinon was something like 18 and the minority opinion was something like two people. Do you want to go by a minority opinion consensus? |

Seems only fair if creationists can do it with geology, physics, biology, history, archeology, etc.
So, I guess if the Shroud is real because the majority of those that studied it conclude it was, then evolution is valid and the earth is really really old.  |

who were the scientists the studied it?
Why does the c-14 dating list it as being at the wrong date? Originally Posted by JohnR7 There are people who feel that it is a fake.
