| I take it you're talking about the authenticity of it being the
one that covered Jesus of Nazareth in the tomb.
I'm undecided. What do you think?

If one looks at the history of when it seemed to surface as well as
the amount of religious artifacts that were being faked at that time.
I think that it's from the medieval time period. Wish that it wasn't
but there's no evidence that it existed beforehand....

There are those who are apprehensive or reluctant about the dating of
the shroud. Have you heard their arguments?

I have read some reports of the dating....seems like people who believe
in the Shroud can come up with facts about the dating being inaccurate
because of contamination and so forth...non-believers have their own
agenda's. Since it didn't surface til the 14th century or so I have to
think that's it's not the real thing.

| I read just yesterday that the shroud will be up for further testing
in the near future and will be viewable to the public for about a
month in 1998.
