- If we assume that the life of Apollonius of Tyana, Cappadocia, was part and parcel of the composite exemplar in the Gospels for the life of "the Jesus Christ", combined together with the life of John The Baptist, cousin of "Jesus", then it automatically follows that the image on the Shroud of Turin is that of Apollonius of Tyana. But curiously, the Vatican has never acknowledged officially that the image on the Shroud is that of either "the Jesus Christ" or Apollonius Tyanaeus.

Then in 1356 CE the Shroud was moved from Constantinople to France, where the Holy See was headquartered at Avignon during the 1300s. ... Finally in 1578, the Shroud was moved to Turin, Italy, where it has remained until the present day. ...

- The new pro-shroud claims come from a team of four scientists from the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio.

- In 1357 the Turin Shroud was gifted to a small church in Lirey, France,by the local lord, Geoffrey de Charny. ...
- If the Turin Shroud is genuine, what does it tell us about Jesus and the origins of Christianity? Curiously, although many believe that it would provide vital proof of the truth of the religion, others argue that it would actually undermine some of its central tenets. ...
- Although the Shroud was endorsed as the genuine article by Popes in the 15th and 16th century, more recently the Catholic Church has been careful not to pronounce on it one way or the other, the official line being that, genuine or not, it is a fit object for meditation on Christ's Passion. The Vatican has refused to accept the results of the 1988 carbon dating. Although Pope John Paul II is known to personally believe that the Shroud is genuine, he has never said so officially.
- For most believers in the Shroud’s authenticity, the cloth and its image are a "fifth gospel" that bears witness to the New Testament accounts of the crucifixion of Jesus. The wounds suffered by the man on the Shroud are exactly those described in the Gospel accounts, which (they argue) shows that those accounts are accurate and reliable. ...
- Not only is the Shroud a souvenir of the most important moment in Jesus’s life, as it wrapped his body as it lay in the tomb and therefore at the moment of his Resurrection, but it is also stained with the blood that, according to Christian theology, he shed to save humanity from its sins.
- In 1464 the future Pope Sixtus IV (Francesco della Rovere) wrote the first book championing the Shroud's authenticity.
- More dramatically, some propose that the Shroud is not just proof of the crucifixion, but also of the Resurrection, the key event in Christian dogma. ...

- ALICE IN WONDERLAND - AND THE SHROUD OF TURIN?.
- As we are assembled here to celebrate Father Adam and his stupendous career in Shroud research, we better ask the same question as Alice did: "which way we ought to go from here?" Only we better not ask this question in Wonderland. It is there where lately Shroud research finds itself trapped and our answers seem to come from the Cheshire Cat.
- Even very recently we have seen the argument presented on television and in papers, here, in Italy and elsewhere, that the Shroud cannot be a painting, because its image disintegrates into what is almost invisibility at close range and into a fairly well defined image from a distance The artist I quote would have needed a 15 feet long brush to paint the Shroud.

The Shroud is not a painting, not because it becomes a well defined image only from a distance, and the artist would have needed a 15 feet long brush to paint it. ... The task to prove whether the Shroud is or is not a painting belongs to the expertise of the practiced monumental arts. ...
- When Shroud research finds itself in Wonderland, not only the borders of professional expertise were crossed, but the borders of a specific cultural milieu and its forbidding event horizon. ...
- IS THE SHROUD A PRIMITIVE PHOTOGRAPH MADE BY LEONARDO DA VINCI?.
- Very recently, a program appeared on television suggesting that the Turin Shroud was made by Leonardo da Vinci, who just to produce the Shroud, (LEFT) invented a primitive form of photography in the 15th century, three and a half centuries before the French made the first photograph in a camera in 1826. ... For starters, the first recorded exhibition of the Shroud in Lirey France was in 1356. ...

- Yesterday, I sent out an NHNE News Update concerning some behind-the-scenes correspondence between myself, Barrie Schwortz and the editors of SI DIGEST, the online newsletter of the COMMITTEE FOR THE SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION OF CLAIMS OF THE PARANORMAL (CSICOP), concerning the Shroud of Turin. Essentially, the editors of SI DIGEST ran a story on the Shroud that declared the enigmatic burial cloth "perhaps the world's most notorious religious hoax. " I sent the editors a copy of yesterday's Shroud Update, which systematically challenged these views, and included this message:.

- Also, while some of the other topics covered in the following SI DIGEST probably deserve to be treated with the same kind of fairness, open-mindedness, and respect we are seeking for the Shroud, I encourage those of you who decide to write to keep your comments focused on the Shroud, which is backed up by decades of serious scientific research and can't be as easily dismissed as other controversial subjects.
