scientist have now proved that the carbon dating is jesus' time
they have proved that the blood on the wounds including the crown of thorns and lashes on the back
coins on the eyes are coins of the pilate
now a group of respectable scientist have admitted after 50 years of test that the only way that the image could have been put on the shroud was the body to turn to light and left a negative imprint which could prove a resurection and with the imprint left similiar to the atom bomb could scientically prove how the ressurrection works
plus scientist have proved it came from jerusalem

Here's some info on the shroud

I don't get a good feeling from the shroud of Turin, so I am not so sure.
The scriptures indicate that Joseph of Arimathaea took the body and prepared it for burial by wrapping it in linen. I wonder how the body was prepared and how clean it was prior to being entombed? I don't think the scriptures really indicate much about that.
What I've heard is that body fluids would have likely caused the markings on the shroud - much like persperation stains on our own clothing are caused over time and become worse with time.
Who knows.

If this is the kind of junk by which your religion can be proven true, then I, for one, am not impressed. Ask your savior to do some REAL miracles, like regrowing someone's amputated limbs, providing food for all the starving children of the world, or putting an end to war. This business of burning his image onto a piece of ratty old cloth is so far from miraculous that it's laughable. Is that the best he can do??

Err...the dates all came back middle ages.
There are other problems with it.
- The head is too big for the body
- The front and back images are different sizes.
- In spite of your claim laying it over a real body would cause the sides of the face to stretch, they don't.
- There are two different pigments visible under a microscope.
It is a cleaver fake and that is all.

Cite sources when you make claims, please.
Last I heard it was shown to be no such thing, but rather the work of an artist in the 14th century.

It was exposed as a medieval hoax. The "blood" stains were proven to be red ochre (paint)

Not sure what religious site you got your info from but it is so far from fact that it's comical.

i don't know where you got your information but it couldn't be more wrong. But then, you don't care about truth, do you.
