[*]Experts claim there is blood on the Shroud which is not typical of healthy person
[*]They say it contains creatinine and ferritin, found in those who suffered trauma
[*]The findings contradict claims that the Shroud was painted by Medieval forgers
[*]The shroud is currently being displayed at St John the Baptist Cathedral in Turin

Experts have claimed the Shroud of Turin is stained with the blood of a torture victim, supporting claims it was used to bury Jesus. They say the linen cloth, believed to have been used to wrap Christ's body after crucifixion, contains 'nanoparticles' which are not typical of the blood of a healthy person. The alleged findings contradict claims the face of Jesus was painted on by forgers in medieval times. Elvio Carlino, a researcher at the Institute of Crystallography in Bari, Italy, says the tiny particles reveal 'great suffering' of a victim ' wrapped up in the funeral cloth'. These particles had a 'peculiar structure, size and distribution,' added University of Padua professor Giulio Fanti. He says the blood contained high levels of substances called creatinine and ferritin, found in patients who suffer forceful traumas like torture. Professor Fanti said: 'Hence, the presence of these biological nanoparticles found during our experiments point to a violent death for the man wrapped in the Turin Shroud.'
The Shroud of Turin measures around three metres by one metre and contains a faintly stained image of a man which Christians believe depicts Jesus.

There's so much controversy over the shroud. Is it real or not. I have no idea, but if it makes religious people feel better then why not.

I'd like to think its real, historically not religiously.

I have always been fascinated Magica by this and like you think it could be historically true, but not religiously so.

I read that Foul but then didn't they do another test and it was from Jesus time, because of something in the material.

Me too Thor. I've seen lots of programmes about this and read reports. Thing is, I can't see how a face can show up on a shroud. Surely everyone's would, unless some chemical was used, I don't even know if there is such a chemical.

I do read lots about Jesus, the man, such historical times. I think religion was thought up to control the masses, to threaten poor people with, but if people believe, who am I to tell them they're wrong.
