The Shroud Of Turin

I love stuff like this. Just as for the tilma showing the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe, the relics of St. Philomena, and the "legend" that St. Peter's Basilica was built over the tomb of St. Peter, here we have an example of something believed in by the faithful for centuries, dismissed by so-called "enlightened" sceptics, and then confirmed by scientific analysis...

I have few doubts that it is real, although my faith in Christ does not hang or fall on its authenticity. This is another intriguing detail, and recalls what the Scripture says was written "above His head" on the cross.

As a distinguished physicist said to me : 'If the image on the Shroud is the result of the Resurrection - a phenomenon of which we know nothing, having no experience of it - then we clearly cannot make any useful comments on the physical state of the Shroud, because by definition we have no relevant knowledge on which to base them'.
