Moderator LogicalFallacy Posted July 15, 2018 Moderator Share Posted July 15, 2018 http://www.msn.com/en-nz/news/world/bloodstains-on-shroud-of-turin-are-probably-fake-experts-say/ar-AAA7Gay?ocid=ientp Well, personally I'm shocked they aren't actually the blood of the Son of God. What's the world coming to with all this science putting a dent in religion? PS this should answer a thread posted by someone a year ago saying the shroud blood might be real. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florduh put it well the other day in another thread: "Believers want to believe." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know cause Jesus will come from the east. You can come join us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pratt Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 even it is menstrual or blood from someone’s ass you just need to believe god works in mysterious ways just a offside question. assuming the shroud is a 13th century creation, it should not be the “legendary 1st century jesus”, is there anyone recorded in that period gotten crucified and burst into radiance and left a mark on a long white cloth?

Or not blood stains at all, but ejaculate.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
