Does the locality of physical uniqueness allow death and decay?

To bring some science into this thread an acquaintance of mine, a physicist who operated out of the ANU (Australian National University) and an expert on radiocarbon dating testing was recruited by one of the test laboratories (I think it was at Oxford University) to aid in testing of a sample of the Shroud of Turin.

At the time of testing a blinded experiment was performed and the identity of the sample was revealed to the testers months after the experiment to avoid possible bias.

Yeah, a piece that was singed from a fire and touched by human hands for centuries. Watch the video.
First of all it is good etiquette of using the quote function when responding to my posts.
Secondly my post was about an individuals first hand account on testing, not a commentary on the Shroud's authenticity which makes your response irrelevant.

What do you think it means that sin will not be possible in Heaven?

I assume your talking to me based on context though perhaps you're just talking into the ether...

Since I don't think Heaven exists and that sin is a human construct, I find this question to be non-sensical and irrelevant.

I should also mention he raised the issue about sample integrity.
The Shroud has undergone repair work over the centuries and there was concern the sample tested was not representative of the original material.
I'm almost certain this was an original piece of information before it evolved into a fringe theory.
