They would have gone with Charles Manson with the swastika carved in his
forehead, but early screening groups were a bit put off.

I saw a cartoon in the Adrian Daily Telegram from yesterday, with a TV
newsman reporting something like "15,000 atheists stormed the offices
of a newspaper when 12 blank sheets of paper were spotted on the desk
of a cartoonist".

C-14 dating of the shroud of Turin give dates of AD 1260 - 1390.

It is also important to realize that most people of that era were wrapped for
burial. Evidence for wounds can have many explanations.

Its also possible that some dirty Italian used it after his semi annual bath.

re #167 The Shroud of Turin has been exposed as almost certainly a hoax. They
have confirmed methods for how it was likely done in the time it was done.

the commonly accepted depictions of Jesus portray him as a white caucasian,
like your average european. wonder why. In fact studies indicate that Jesus,
if he existed, was likely not caucasian but of a darker skinned complexion
common to semitics of that era.

well everybody will agree Jesus was a semitic guy, probably looking like
one of the guys seen in palestinian crowds.At that time Mohammed wasn't
born, and the israelis that lives at the place now didn't.
These days he'd be arrested by most cops...and rabbis would probably
still try to get rid of him ...
think about it next time Dubya Imperator says on TV "God save my money"

I'm fairly certain Moses was similar to Sherman Hemsley and they both sang
"Movin on Up"

richard, learn to read and comprehend English. These are your words:
> the Christian world, where the image of Jesus on the
> cross is a key of the faith.
The image is *NOT* a "key of the faith". Maybe it is a good "marketing tool",
but that's not what you wrote, is it?

re #178 if it is a good marketing tool, a great marketing tool, it is in MY
OPINION, a key to the faith. Albaugh I am entitled to that opinion and you
are entitled to disagree.

Re #173: the web discussions appear to assume that *either* the SoT is the
burial cloth of JC or a medieval hoax. However those are not the only
alternatives. It could be a medieval burial cloth for a medieval person.
Can you cite a site for absolutely certain evidence that the shroud was
prepared with the purpose of being a hoax in medieval times rather than as
being simply the shroud for a human body from that period? Certainly even
if it is nothing more than the latter it could have subsequently be
*claimed* to be the shroud for JC. Making such a claim would then be a
hoax, but not the shroud itself.

actually, the latest report says the radio carbon dating test was flawed with
detrius from the middle ages caused by the fire that singed the corners with
silver.

Well, that is problematic. There are huge controversies over all aspects
of this. Would you please cite a site giving well-documented and agreed upon
evidence for that alleged flaw in the C14 dating? There are sites that
ridicule the fire story.

They traced the mitochondria (maternal lineage) DNA back to Ireland. Its
quite possible that its a Sean Penn's bath towel.

"God" deals in faith, right? So maybe, "he" decided
"I'll screw the doubting thomases" - "he" rigged
the results of the carbon dating, and anyone who
puts belief in scientific results over simple faith
- going down! Hey, maybe I'm wrong... and maybe
doubting the wisdom of my words will get you on the
express de-elevator too.

Re resp:187: See, that's one of the problems I have with Creationism.
To believe it, you have to believe that God did stuff specifically to
mislead us and cause some of us to end up in Hell. It's hard to square
that with a loving God.
I gave up on religion when I realized that there were only two ways to
explain how things happened in the world: Either God doesn't exist, or
God is a mean, arbitrary bastard. In the first case there's nothing to
believe in, and in the second case He doesn't seem like someone I'd
want to worship.
