Re: [TruthTalk] new dating for Turin Shroud

[Blaine Borrowman]

Well and good comments,  Terry, but not everyone accepts the "givens" of religious belief as we do.   Since the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ are in one way or other tied up with the shroud, it is a critical evidence of the reality of the Savior's mission on the earth--not merely that he lived, died and was buried--which is accepted by most.  The negative image on the shroud is believed by many scientists to have been caused by a burst of radiation, since it shows bone structure as well as surface image of the corpse.  For instance, the left thumb of the man enwrapped in the shroud was underneath the right hand, both being clasped together, yet the shroud image shows the bone structure of that hidden thumb.  It shows bone structure throughout the body as well.  Blaine  ----- Original Message ----- From: Terry Clifton To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2004 8:51 PM Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] new dating for Turin Shroud Blaine Borrowman wrote: New Date for Shroud of Turin Hey Blaine: Forgive my ignorance, but why the big deal over this cloth?  Do we need proof that Jesus was buried?
