New research: Shroud of Turin is stained with the blood of a torture victim

[Phantomboxe]

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.

hammer and nail certainly point to finding of torture

They have never explained why a cloth, that when laid on a body follows the shape of that body, should have an image with no distortion on it

Utter moronic bullshit.    It's been debunked for over 30 years and has had multiple carbon dating done to it and it all shows that it was made in medieval times.   It's just a fake ancient relic, one of many that was created and sold in medieval times.
