Maybe you have more in common with your perception of YECs than you care to admit?

Actually, there is no science, that is known about what happened in Jesus Christ tomb, and the resurrection, this is the problem.
:clap: Next you'll be telling me that the Pope rejects Christ's resurrection.

No I am only stating correctly, that the people who know the science of resurrection, and that they know how knowledge of this science effects linen cloth, are in fact acting out a collective desire for the shroud to be the burial cloth of Christ. I furthermore point out that the Catholic church, while it clearly preaches the resurrection, that it does not see convincing evidence, that the shroud is genuine.

You do not know what other artifacts that the Catholic church, has Carbon dated, and gotten consistent results from. So the Catholic church, may well have significantly more real information to work with, as all you have are the internet ramblings, of people who know how the resurrection effected a cloth.

You are funny. Is that intentional or what? Maybe your posts should be moved to the jokes section?

You are free to disagree with the Vatican, billions of others do as well. Nothing new here.

Pope Francis has made comments on the Shroud of Turin, the much-discussed and analyzed burial cloth that some believe shows the face of Jesus Christ, saying that it "speaks to the heart," though he stopped short of declaring the piece an official relic.

"This image, impressed upon the cloth, speaks to our heart," the Roman Catholic Church leader said in an Italian TV Easter Saturday special.

"This disfigured face resembles all those faces of men and women marred by a life which does not respect their dignity, by war and violence which afflict the weakest … And yet, at the same time, the face in the shroud conveys a great peace; this tortured body expresses a sovereign majesty," he added.

So it seems that some are transferring their argument with the Pope and the Vatican, one with which they have no perceived chance of success, to me. Again, I have merely stated the Vatican's view. You do not have to accept this, nor have I said that anyone should.
