Could ancient earthquake explain Shroud of Turin? [View all] Warren Stupidity Feb 2014 OP

Except it hasn't been explained how it was fabricated. rug Feb 2014 #1

It was a miracle! Warren Stupidity Feb 2014 #3

And controlled inquiry has not explained how it was made. rug Feb 2014 #4

Hmmm. longship Feb 2014 #9

What guy? I hadn't heard that. rug Feb 2014 #11

Nope. All one has to do is falsify it. longship Feb 2014 #15

That really doesn't do it. rug Feb 2014 #18

Well, the accuracy is high enough to state that the shroud certainly is not a 1st century object. longship Feb 2014 #20

Not quite. There was no fourteenth century technique to create it. rug Feb 2014 #36

So you are certain that there was no Warren Stupidity Feb 2014 #39

You made the assertion it's a hoax. rug Feb 2014 #42

It is a hoax based on its dating. Warren Stupidity Feb 2014 #43

Shhhhhh. Facts matter little when dealing with religious beliefs. cleanhippie Feb 2014 #5

In that case, please do explain how it was made. rug Feb 2014 #6

It was made by a special very local earthquake. Warren Stupidity Feb 2014 #7

I see. You have no explanation. rug Feb 2014 #12

It was a miracle! God made it Warren Stupidity Feb 2014 #14

Lol! cleanhippie Feb 2014 #25

Clearly. Had you one you'd have produced it. rug Feb 2014 #35

It was aliens. trotsky Feb 2014 #8

"God did it" Goblinmonger Feb 2014 #16

That is the case. rug Feb 2014 #17

Do you believe it was the shroud of Jesus Goblinmonger Feb 2014 #19

I doubt it. But I'm more interested in knowing how it was done. rug Feb 2014 #23

I like the da Vinci theory. reusrename Feb 2014 #27

Did they find any silver sulphate on the shroud? rug Feb 2014 #28

Is this a test? reusrename Feb 2014 #29

No. Isn't the da Vinci theory that he was commissioned to replace an earlier one? rug Feb 2014 #30

Whether or not da Vinci ever made use of one of those is still up for debate. reusrename Feb 2014 #31

Well, there's another theory that the Mona Lisa is a self-portrait. rug Feb 2014 #32

hmmm edhopper Feb 2014 #57

He did, and none of those findings have been proven false skepticscott Feb 2014 #73

I personally think it was not the real burial shroud. hrmjustin Feb 2014 #10

Apparently it does not even match 1st century burial practices. longship Feb 2014 #21
