With faulty tests.
Long story behind that I don’t have time to get into now.
Going from memory here, paraphrasing.
Cliff’s notes version:
The area chosen for testing was taken from an area everyone agreed beforehand shouldn’t be used for carbon dating, since it was near a repaired area.
The samples were sent to three labs; the samples were taken in areas of lesser, medium, and greater repair (the repair technique was called “French invisible reweaving” and consisted of gradually blending in replacement threads in greater and greater percentage from the initial area until finally the whole of the replaced cloth was new thread.
The samples were all taken from areas of % percentages of original cloth.
And the results from the three labs gave estimates for the age which varied linearly with the % of new thread; and the estimates given by each lab were outside the error bars of the other labs.
...and one of the scientists at a testing lab came out and said they were finally going to disprove the Shroud, before the testing began.
A later estimate based on the trends in the ages with % new cloth, from the first three labs, suggested an age of 1st century.
POST OF THE TREAD. Thanks.
Just being accurate.
I never said the Shroud was false.
You must have misunderstood my post, or you’re here to cause fights.
You’ll have to do better than that to get a rise out of me.
:-P
Go read at the link I posted. Then, we can discuss it.
The Shroud is a photographic negative.
(You can tell yourself that this isn't evidence of a miraculous event, although I don't think you would convince anyone else.)
Did you see the documentary where they took the image on the Shroud and made a 3d model out of it? It was great. I believe it to be authentic just as I would other archeological discoveries.
I do not understand the need for people to say they believe in Jesus regardless of the Shroud. Of course, people have done that for centuries
I agree, an amazing relic
Personally, I believe the Shroud is the genuine burial clothe of my Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ, and I don’t need or trust the “science” to confirm His existence to anchor my faith in Him.
Simply put, you either believe or you don’t. You put your faith in either man/science (i.e.: Fauci, Gates, Soros, Biden, etc al) or you put your faith in God.
I’m gonna stick with God.
Your reference to “confirmation” is what I addressed.
Can’t confirm the uncertain. One can believe, but that doesn’t make it so in this case.
No offense, just a point.
Naw. I have a video that says the opposite. You do you.
BWAAAAAHAHAHA, the monumental arrogance. You purport to judgmentally speak for Jesus.
I don’t suffer fools that profess their truth as the only truth gladly,
I don’t either, but I look at the image, and I marvel at His image on it.
It really IS Him!
I agree, to me the shroud is some confirmation of what I have experienced, a transformation of my life by Christ. I feel blessed to be aware of the shroud, but my faith is in the risen Christ.

A Triple,

It’s the Lord’s image. What’s not to get excited about?
But so what, if it isn’t..
Christ’s image, I meant to say.🙄
