Episode notes
Shroud Skepticism
- Glenn Beck grew up Catholic and was taught that the Shroud of Turin was real.
- Evangelicals dismissed it as a Catholic relic, then as a forgery after the late 80s carbon dating.
Anachronistic Negative
- The Shroud image, being a negative, predates the understanding of negatives by centuries.
- This suggests the Shroud's creation was beyond the technological capabilities of a medieval forger.
Flawed Carbon Dating
- The 1988 carbon dating was flawed due to using patched samples from fire damage and repairs.
- Nuns had invisibly woven cotton into the linen for repairs, contaminating the tested area.
