Thanks. You have now confirmed that you are as big a fucking idiot as I initially pegged you for. Like all catholics, you are easily conned by bullshit stories!
It is interesting how people cling to such obvious bullshit, even when it isn't necessary for their basic story. Indeed, it does not fit with the strips of cloth mentioned in the Bible, so one would expect that anyone who takes the Bible seriously would reject that Shroud of Turin. So it is quite bizarre that anyone would be trying to push that as evidence of anything.
There are many Christians who are smart enough to reject such bullshit as the Shroud of Turin. So it is really telling when someone is ready to accept a proven fake to be supporting evidence.
This seems an appropriate time to bring up Thomas Paine:

"A wise man ... proportions his belief to the evidence."
