• Shroud of Turin Looking More Genuine, Researcher Contends.
• - Carbon-14 tests that dated the Shroud of Turin to the Middle Ages were invalid, a researcher said today.
• Jorge Manuel Rodríguez, vice president of the Centro Español de Sindonología, said that all scientific studies prove the invalidity of the carbon-14 dating of the holy Shroud of Turin. ...
• Rodríguez, also a professor of civil law at the University of Valencia, has been studying the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin for 24 years. ...
• The professor, who has given more than 500 lectures on the Shroud of Turin, acknowledged that "the majority of people think that it is a false relic, because of the enormous publicity given to the carbon-14 dating done in 1988, which concluded erroneously that the holy shroud dates from the Middle Ages. ...
• The Centro Español here is studying the Shroud of Turin, the Oviedo shroud, and other relics attributed to Jesus Christ.
• The last multidisciplinary study of the Shroud of Turin, carried out by NASA experts in 1978, indicated "the cloth shows an image that has tridimensional information, that is made without a single stroke, and that is not produced by contact either, but which resembles the imprint that would be produced by a hypothetical radiation emanating from the body," Rodríguez said.
• Meanwhile, TV station "Antena 3" said that other research indicates that the relic in Oviedo, in northwest Spain, also has amazing points of coincidence with the Shroud of Turin.
• The forensic experts discovered human bloodstains of the AB group, identical to those on the Shroud of Turin.
• The cloth also revealed traces of the crown of thorns, pollen remains of native Palestinian plants, and a host of details and coincidences, which indicate that the man of the Oviedo relic is the same one as the one of the Shroud of Turin.
• They do, however, coincide with the face on the Shroud of Turin.
• The experts said that the Shroud of Turin could not be dated in the 14th century, as carbon-14 tests indicated, since it covered the same body as the Oviedo relic, whose existence was documented several centuries earlier.

• The best qualified of all is Cardinal Martini of Milan, but the chances of his election are slim-to-nil, given his outspoken, progressive views. Nevertheless, he enjoys widespread respect within the hierarchy for his pastoral vision and spirituality and will surely be one of the grand electors in the conclave, that is, one of a tiny handful of cardinals who will exert significant influence not only in directing votes toward particular candidates, but also in preventing the election of others, like Cardinal Biffi, deemed theologically or psychologically unfit for the job.
• Cardinals Aloisio Lorscheider of Brazil and Franz König of Austria were two of the most prominent grand electors at the second 1978 conclave that gave us John Paul II, and the late Cardinal Giovanni Benelli was the key factor in the election of John Paul I, who died after only 33 days in office.
