"description": "In April 1988, the Vatican authorities provided a small sample of the Turin Shroud for carbon-14 dating of the alleged burial cloth of Jesus Christ. In October of the same year, coordinator Michael S. Tite presented the conclusion of the university labs of Oxford, Zurich and Tucson (Arizona) to the entire world press: the miraculous imprint of Jesus\u2019 resurrected body on the shroud dated to 1260-1390 CE\u2026<br />\n<br />\nEven if we accept that the Turin Shroud indeed is a cloth from the 13th or 14th century, does this answer all the questions raised before the radiocarbon dating? Judging by the countless publica-tions that have appeared in the scientific and the popular press since, nobody seems to have managed so far. <br />\n<br />\nThis book reveals the true origin of this medieval relic. The so called \u2018believers\u2019 recognize in the spectacular image instantly the \u2018stamp\u2019 of the Miracle Worker from Galilee, but was it not Jesus himself who denied the unique character of his miracles? Indeed, \u2018Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do.\u2019 (John 14:12)<br />\nThe Turin Shroud was \u2018fabricated\u2019 in the 13th or 14th century. Yet, not by a smart swindler, but by an \u2018enlightened\u2019 individual who had \u2018ears to hear\u2019 (Mark 4:23)\u2026",
