In the Middle Ages artists exaggerated the body proportions of their subjects to lend them more gravitas. The artist who forged the Shroud was forced to use the contemporary style lest people judged it to be a fake at first glance. But if you saw a real man with the proportions of the image on the Shroud, One, he would have towered over his disciples in the Levant, and Two, his head would seem much too small.
Three, the wound from the nail in the cross comes from his hand. That would not do in a Roman crucifixion.
Four, what's the point of covering his genitals for modesty in the burial when no one would ever look at him anyway? That only makes sense if it's a painting.
I can do this all day.

But, as a whole; no one here cares to flip their world upside-down. Understandable...and predictable. This is the reason
many intelligent people have left this place. There is no exchange of ideas or debates over evidence. Just mindless
banter and circle-jerking. The slightest "interest" in an opposing view, by any one of you, is eventually crushed with
a stab in the back, due to peer pressure! Is there anyone who can be an independent thinker here?
Over the 12 or so years I've been around here, this place has had it's collection of idiots, but there were a few decent
atheists I had the pleasure of knowing. And in one case I've talked with on another site. But, this place is reduced to a
kindergarten of insulting brats and bathroom humor. Not surprising, but disappointing. Every visit back is a confirmation
of the reality here: a vacuum, void of any love, peace or understanding. Unless it fits the resident narrative. The irony
is the "Christianity" sign hung on the door! Should say.... "Christianity Ridicule Here".
I never thought I would [change] anyone here. I've never tried. My position has always been, "change my faith"? But again
my Faith has been increased being around atheists. Not because they don't have an argument. It's because their argument
is empty. Like their lives. Subraction isn't an argument. If you want to change your life or others, you need to Add to it.
I still Love all of you. Jesus does too. I'll pray that each of you finds the evidence you need to believe...IF evidence is
what you want? Peace
