Prof. Harry Gove,which made the Holy Shroud date back to the middle-Very interesting program last week reviewing the evidence on the shroud,
ages in 1988 by the method 14C, already in 1995, in the light on the
latest scientific knowledge, realised that the dating was wrong .
The Mystery of the Holy Shroud print,which couldn't be made by men at
all, must be correlated to the Mystery of the Resurrection of
Jesus,Who was wrapped in the Holy Shroud after being buried and rose
from the death in the Holy Shroud.
although it did rather major on the agony of the form of death rather than
on the science of the material. My interpretaion of the chap from Cambridge
was that he would prefer a sample that did not have the contamination, but
that the processes used to get down to the 'real' material were pretty good,
and did not leave an enormous margin of error - certianly not enough to put
the material back 1200 years.
One thing that has never been considered (in the published programs) is that
the images are 'flat' photo type images. If you wrap a cloth around your
face from ear to ear, you'll get an image (say) 300 mm wide and 200mm high.
A photograph will be 150mm wide and 200mm high - this appears to be the
aspect ratio of the shroud image. Also, the image of the front and back of
the body are almost touching, leaving no space for the crown of the head.
Once these basic observation have been explained, I might have more faith in
it being a 'real' shroud.
